Expect a warm welcome with lots of tips on where to go and what to see. Jose and his apartment are spot on, perfect location for a family, with a lovely park, children's playground and shops selling pastal de natas and delicious ice cream! There's a supermarket nearby too. Jose left wine for us and pastal de natas, very thoughtful. We spent mornings having breakfast and evenings with vinho verde on the balcony watching planes coming in to Lisbon airport. Not loud, almost meditative watching their approach! The apartment is a good size and had everything we needed. Bedrooms are next to each other and our daughter loved having a big bed to herself! Lots of greenery around and easy access to attractions either on foot or via the metro station at Rato which was a 15 minute walk through the park. I've already recommended Jose's apartment to friends. Wouldn't think twice about staying there again.
