Mónica is such an amazing and caring being. She made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. I could only check-in after 11pm due to my flight and Mónica had no issues with that at all. It was almost midnight when we got to the apartment and she was there waiting for us with a bright smile. She gave us a house tour and explained how things worked. She told us about places we might want to visit and how to go about. Always very friendly, respectful, attentive and helpful. I am so grateful to have found a host like Mónica.
When it comes to the apartment, I have nothing bad to say about it. It was spotless cleaned with all the amenities one could need even for longer stays. Wi-if never failed, the shower is amazing, the apartment is warm too, I was never cold there.
In terms of location, the apartment is well located in a quiet area just 10-15 min away from Lisbon (Marquês de Pombal) if driving but there is also buses that takes you directly to Lisbon in under 30-40 minutes (the bus stop is 2 min away from the apartment, very close by). Just a couple of minutes from the apartment, there is a church, a butchers, a pharmacy, a couple of little shops, a little market store where you can buy food, restaurants and café shops. And of course if you wanted to venture out and go to Sintra you’d be close by if you stay at Mónica’s.
My partner and I really loved and enjoyed our stay; and we’d definitely stay at Mónica’s again in the future 😊
