While the apartment is located close to Belem and Lisbon old city, there were many things that we didn't like about our stay. We were here for 5 nights.
1. Kitchen - We booked an Airbnb mainly because we have small kids and we prefer to cook some meals at home. While the listing says the kitchen is fully quipped, it has only 1 small vessel that I can probably use to make some tea. I reached out to the owner to see if they can provide me with a bigger vessel wherein I can make a one pot meal at least for my family but they said they couldn't arrange for it.
2. Portable fan - The listing says there are "portable fans" but there was only 1 fan and it was extremely hot and humid to stay indoors during the day or night. Opening the windows meant giving entry to the cockroaches so we couldn't keep them open. The owner couldn't arrange for another fan in spite of asking for it.
3. Shower - Too small a shower, even for a medium sized person. The drain is not effective enough so every 2-3 minutes while taking a shower, the water gets filled in the shower and you need to shut off the water, wait until all the water has drained, before running water again. Also the hot water is not consistent. You get hot water for about 2 mins and then suddenly there is cold water. It takes a few minutes for the hot water to come back. So you're basically doing the hot n cold showers at the same time.
Overall not a good experience with little kids in tow.
