We had a wonderful week in Lisbon, both due to the joy of the city itself, and Joana's great hospitality. She was as welcoming as ever when our flight was delayed and when we needed to stay an extra night she sorted out accommodation for us in one of her other flats. The apartment is large, airy and very comfortable, and has everything you need for an extended stay, including cooking and dining in. It is located west in the city, but even considering the steep hills, we had no problem getting anywhere, and ended up walking wherever we needed to go. We found that this is the best way to see the every corner of the city, and avoid the crowded trams. In general I can't recommend Lisbon enough, with the coffee and pastel de natas, amazing seafood (Ramiro's is outstanding) and sunshine tempered only by an easy breeze. Joana's apartment was the perfect starting point and we would both recommend it on and hope to return ourselves.
