Patricia's place is as advertised. Cute and tiny. Ceiling height is low (as advertised) so be prepared to lean over a lot. The use of the small space is well thought out. The execution of the remodel is a bit rough around the edges. (Sconces in the bathroom not made for wet location, washer leaked, something used to be attached to shower wall but has obviously fallen off and not been patched...) She could use a better handyman. But for only a few days stay, it didn't really matter.
Patricia left thoughtful snacks and a bottle of wine. She has compiled tips on where to eat and what to see which guided us to some good meals. The outdoor deck has a fabulous view of the water. The place is right next to the castle wall, which was a helpful landmark as we tried to find our way back. The apartment is in the historical part of town. Never having been to Lisbon, I was not prepared for the high volume of tourists in the area. Even in the off season in the rain, the throngs of people were a bit overwhelming.
When I originally went to sign up for the apartment, airbnb doubled the price while I was in the process of booking. Apparently, there is some sort of algorithm, like with airlines, the more times you look at it, the higher the price goes. If I had been able to get the apartment for the original advertised price I would say it was a good deal.
