Maggie operates on a different level than all others airbnb hosts, she actually cares about you and is always one text away from help. She's not only your AirBnb host she's your travel agent; giving you recommendations upon recommendations and providing you with many useful tips.
She gives you access to her personalized database of places to visit through a usb key on the TV. You can look through it in your downtimes.
She came to pick us up from the airport and gave us a tour of Alfama with so much contagious enthusiasm.
Location-wise it can't be better located, you're literally in the middle of the action mixed with the locals. You can enjoy your tourist life as soon as you put your foot out the door. It doesn't mean that it's hectic, the people of Alfama are very quiet, welcoming and authentic.
I can't hide that the apartment is very small but our goal wasn't to stay in anyway. It provides you with all the essentials: kitchen, bathroom and a bed.The place was also squeaky clean.
