maria jose is a great host, the apartment is gorgeous and styled retro, the photos definitely don’t do the size, colours or ambiance of the apartment justice. it is beautiful and spacious! the apartment is located at the top floor of a very old building, and as soon as you walk in the front door of the building you can smell the age, which is quite nice in its own way. the apartment is located in alfama, a beautiful district of lisbon which is restricted for uber drivers, so if using uber you must be dropped off at the end of the road to walk to the apartment - which is also quite nice :). one thing to note is that there is no plug for the bathtub, and the shower is kinda wonky, so if you’re looking to bathe - beware of this, you’re only able to use the shower head to wash, unless you make/bring your own drain plug, haha! maria jose is responsive and kind, and if the apartment was definitely groovy and up to par. :) thank you maria jose!
