Laura’s place was in the historical district. The place is a lot bigger on the inside than it looks outside. Love the fact that it had two bathrooms. It felt like one big family with the other guests. She provided towels which I wasn’t expecting. It was clean and the area was safe with lots of restaurants. There was a park on the street with a lookout spot facing the river. And further down the street was an area with lot of food trucks to eat. The area is well served by public transit and the buses are frequent and was how we got around Lisbon. On our first night we had a lovely encounter with the guy who runs the supermarkado. Who was shutting his doors when we showed up at almost midnight. He reopened his store and served us .
