We appreciated very much the flat of Maria not only for the position (from there you can easily reach all the places in the town Center and it is just 50 metres from a Miradour with a wounderful view of the whole town) but also for the very nice atmosphere.It is really a cosy apartment not the usual flat to rent but with a lot of personality so that you feel like at home. It is furnished with everything you can need also for a long stay. Just notice that it is situated in an old house (don't care about the stairs when you enter for the first time even if the entrance of the building is quite old and not nice) on the third floor and obviously without lift.
Unfortunately we didn't have the possibility to meet Maria personally since she left for us the keys in the restaurant which is just under the flat but she always answered us to every mail very quickly and was at disposal for any question. We would have liked to meet her personally since we stayed in her own flat, just to have a personal contact but of course it is not always possible for the owner to greet all the guests. Maybe next time! :) If I come back to Lisbon I would definitely try to get back to the flat of Maria.
For anybody who preferr in the morning to start with a breakfast in a bar, instead of preparing it at home, just turn left from the house door and follow Rua da Rosa until the end (2 minutes)) and you will find on the Corner of Rua D. Pedro a very nice old-style bar with lots of nice pastries. The perfect place to start the day in Lisbon.
