In terms of the apartment, we couldn't have asked for anything more. It was beautifully decorated, and matched the pictures perfectly. It was in an incredible neighbourhood close to bars, shops, bakeries, restaurants, and with easy access to major transport links. And – despite it being close to a vibrant nightlife – with the windows shut we couldn't hear a thing. It was incredibly comfortable, great value for money and the ideal place to stay for a city break in Lisbon. We can't really do it justice in this short review!

We couldn't have asked for anything more from a host in Diogo, either! He was really friendly and welcoming, and even provided us with a welcome package including toiletries, wine and snacks. He pointed out nearby hidden gems to us – good places to go to eat and drink that we otherwise would have missed – and he gave us clear directions to places we needed to go. Speaking of directions, the ones he gave us from the airport to the apartment when we first arrived were crystal clear, and he was on hand to answer any questions we might have had during our stay.

The apartment was incredible, the neighbourhood was ideal for what we wanted, and as a host Diogo was superb. We hope he'll have us back when we next visit Lisbon!
