I had the pleasure of staying at Barbara’s Airbnb for a week during a conference and a short city trip to Lisbon. For both activities, I can highly recommend taking this Airbnb. The Tivoli Oriente Hotel (location of many conferences) is only a 15 min walk. Furthermore, right next to the Airbnb there is a metro station and a bus stop, allowing you to easily travel to anywhere within Lisbon from early in the morning till late at night. The room was better than expected with a big, comfortable bed and a large smart tv.
But what standouts most in this Airbnb is Barbara. She is such a sweet and lovely person. She is friendly, flexible and always ready to help and look out for her guests. She doesn’t speak English, but that wasn’t a problem at all. We communicated just fine through online translators. It is like coming home to a Portuguese mother I never had.
Airbnb should make a new category for hosts like Barabara: super-super host!
