To meet Joao and to stay at his apartment might be one oft he best airbnb-experiences you can have. Joao is a very friendly and helpful host and gives you a warm welcome, including a pick up from the airport. It's very easy to stay in touch, he's always online. If you have a question you'll get an answer until seconds - always in a good mood. His apartment is perfectly located in the (very) old town and therefor in the center of Lisbon. Buses and trains are reachable in a few minutes. And at night it feels like beeing in the countryside - no cars, no noise, just silence. Wonderful! It's very nice furnished, well equiped and perfectly clean. We loved to sit at the roof-top-terrace, enjoying a glass of wine and the wonderful river-view. Special tipp for outdoorfreaks like us: The Castelo de Sao Jorge, one of the touristic hot-spots, is only a few steps away and gives you the most magnificent view over the city. Go there in the evening, when the other tourists are leaving, have a picnic at the castlewalls – and the world is yours! Thank you, Joao, for these wonderful days in your wonderful city.
