This is truly a big, beautiful apartment, nicely decorated and fully equipped. The location is exceptional: many of Lisbon's sights are within walking distance and for everything else there is the metro (a short walk away) and Lisbon's excellent transit system. Doris is a perfect host who responded immediately to questions and did everything possible to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. There was wine in the fridge and a loaf of bread on the kitchen counter, along with other necessities, when we arrived. There is a washing machine and an ingenious indoor overhead laundry line along with other appliances. The beds are comfortable and the linen is of good quality. And Doris was generous in letting one of our party stay late on our departure date. Everything, in short, was what we hoped it would be.
