I'm not sure if I would recommend staying in this place, it will only be a good option if it's your last resource.
The apartment (and the building) need some maintenance, there were so many broken things that it was hard to enjoy my stay, I had to keep pinging the hosts.
Here's a list of problems I found in the apartment:
- the building door is broken (so anyone from the street can enter the building, no need for a key)
- the washing machine door was broken, so I couldn't wash any clothes for the first week and a half (I reached out to the host and they manage to fix that by week two)
- the drying rack (outside the window) was broken so there was no place to dry your clothes (I reached out to the owner and they bought a new indoors one)
- the vacuum cleaner was broken (I didn't bother reaching out to the owner for this one)
- two of the automatic window open/close systems in the bedroom were broken (not too bad, but still, it adds up to show how they haven't been taking care of the apartment)
- during my first night in the apartment I found a pair of socks on the bed that belonged to some woman that slept there before me, I didn't even reach out to the host because I was so tired that I didn't care, but it just goes to show how cleaning is not their priority
Overall the apartment felt very unclean and untaken care of, it's a pity because the location is good and the place is somewhat modern.
I wouldn't recommend staying in this place if you have other options, this should be your last resource.
To the hosts: I only hope you take better care of your place, I know it's easy to rent any somewhat-good place in Lisbon, but it's important to keep the apartment in good shape and do some maintenance repairs from time to time.
