Ricardo was a great host. He answered all my messages re parking, changing arrival times etc. He came himself to check in and explained everything about the flat well. The location of the apartment could not have been better. Walk to train and seafront and right in the heart of centre. The apartment is exactly as described in brief. Very spacious and well designed. Everything we needed in kitchen. The beds were good and all the sheets an towels were lovely clean and fresh.There was a constant hum of other apartments Acs during the night, you have to remember you are in the centre of a very busy historic city and a certain amount of noise is to be expected.
There was scaffolding outside the front of apartment which blocked the light during the day but otherwise not a problem. I think you will probably face some construction anywhere you stay in Lisbon as there is serious renovation works going on all around the city. We felt very cool and trendy staying in Ricardos flat. This stay was exactly why I love airbnb, seeing a fantastic city as if you were a local. Ricard left recommendations for restaurants although with such choice we never got to them.
