This flat, with plenty of light, air and good ventilation, has a calm, peaceful and soothing ambience. Layout is good, beds are comfortable, the well equipped kitchen is an absolute joy; the host is generous. It is spacious for the two of us; both rooms are wonderful. Location is excellent: quiet and convenient, enabling us to make daily (!) visit to Tourist Information Centre nearby :) It's our first experience with a vintage flat in Europe, took us sometime to adjust to the wooden stairs, some of them feel "soft and edgy" but we get by. We enjoyed our 10 days there. Just one suggestion: if guests intend to stay more than a couple of days - both Lisbon and the flat worth it - find out and agree on the cleaning arrangements in greater details in advance. We went out a lot, and whatsapp apparently doesn't always work, although things did sort out eventually - after a bit of toing and froing. We didn't meet Manuel, email communications are smooth and friendly. We met with, and were assisted by Tiago, Manuel's representative, who is cheerful and as helpful as he can.
