We had a great time at Gilby's apartment. We were met as arranged by Mira who was very helpful. We arrived early but there was no problem leaving our bags there. The apartment was so lovely, very restful and comfortable with lots of quirky corners, and lots of light and fresh air. It was very quiet and we had everything we needed. We loved the area which is an old part of town but is not in the most touristy part so we felt part of a neighbourhood. It was very close to all the places we wanted to got to- we mostly walked around Lisbon but it was very close to the metro, cafes and shops. We loved the local small park Jardim do Torel which Mira's friend told us about with an amazing view of Lisbon. Gilby also sent us a great guide and e mail with recommended cafes etc. The apartment was so nice that we really enjoyed being there and relaxing after a days walking around the city. Lisbon is a beautiful city and we would love to go back one day!
