We read the reviews of this apartment before we booked so felt we knew what we were going to find. However, the reviews don't do it justice in terms of the quality of service from Maria and the location! It is true that there are many bars at street level, but you really don't hear them with the windows closed. The aircon meant that the room was a pleasant temperature, and we were really comfortable there. The little black book of tips on where to go and what to do was great and really informative, but Maria kept in touch to ensure that she was on hand to provide any other information we needed. The restaurants we went to were just amazing (Estrela Da Bica and Peixola). We loved Fado at Tasca de Chico, and spent some wonderful hours roaming through Alfama and travelling over to Belem. There was so much to find practically on the doorstep that we didn't feel we had enough time to do Lisbon justice. We will definitely be coming back here! Thank you Maria, love from David and Diana
