This is by far the best place I've ever rented. The photos are so good I was afraid the place was not going to be so good. But it was. Even better. The parking inside the building was the reason we chose, and was a great comfort for us, but was not the highlight.
From the very first moment when we met Ana (she's so helpful) to the moment we left, we were in love with what we call "our little place at Lisbon".
The reasons?
1. IT'S BIG. When we first saw the pictures we were afraid it would oversell the place. But when we arrive at apartment we were shocked how big the living room is. The bathroom is not properly shown in pictures, but it's also big;
2. IT'S CLEAN. Pictures don't have smells, but places we rented in Airbnb usually has (and they are not good most of times). But Ana's place was not only beautiful for the eyes, but also clean (very clean) with no odd smells. As a matter of fact, it was scented;
3. IT'S CHARMING. The decoration is great in every inch of apartment. We loved it!
4. IT'S PRACTICAL. More than beautiful, Ana thought on details. The kitchen is not that big, but is really easy to do anything. The devices are at hand, and had everything to be used for a breakfast or for a full dinner (we did once);
5. LOCATION IS GREAT. Graça is really charming and a good place to have an experience of local Lisbon. It's not an international resort area, and thus will give you a real feel of local resident. But the main point here is support: you have good transportation at hand (Tram 28) a Pingo Doce a few blocks away (best supermarket and grocery store in Portugal) and lots of restaurants, cafes and bars. We loved the Indian;
6. THE HOST IS GREAT. Ana is helpful and is prompt to support, but not being invasive. We loved all the support she gave us when we arrived!
