The hosts, Carlos and Clara, were warm and welcoming! They were quick to respond to our inquiries prior to our arrival and made it clear that they would be available as needed during our stay. I cannot say enough about the neighborhood - it's as charming and romantic as they get! You are a short walk away from all of the historic sightseeing attractions all while having a cozy, quiet retreat on a residential street. The apartment had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and we greatly appreciated the fruit and a bottle of champagne provided by our hosts upon arrival (they were aware that we are honeymooning in Portugal). There is a supermarket, a pharmacy, a coffee stand, several restaurants and a beautiful little park all just outside the apartment building. The location, the hosts and the comfortable apartment all made our stay perfect for relaxing and exploring Lisbon!
