Our group of 4 adults and 1 child enjoyed our 7 night stay at the Skinny House in Belem. Mafalda was a nice host.
The house is bigger and brighter than it looks in the pictures. The kitchen had everything we needed to make simple meals. The dining room table was large enough for our group of 5. The sofa was large enough for 3 and we used the extra living room chair and the entry room chair so all 5 of us could watch the television during the rainy nights. The Wifi was strong and we used it for our 4 cellphones and a tablet.
The downstairs bathroom was very small but okay since we were glad to have a 2nd bathroom. The upstairs bathroom was spacious and very nicely designed. The shower water pressure was marvelous and there was always enough hot water.
The 2 bedrooms upstairs were perfect size and they were on opposite sides of the hallway with the bathroom and staircase in between so we had privacy. The bedroom with the queen size bed had a skylight window that you could open and close.
The house is a quick walking distance to the Pastries de Belem, Starbucks, and the Jeronimos Monastery. The public transit was a few blocks away. We used Uber a few times and were picked up quickly in front of the house.
We purchased fresh baked croissants a few mornings at the French Bakery which is one block up the street!
We plan to visit Lisbon again next year and plan to stay at the Skinny House again because of its location and the price was just right! Thank you Malfalda!
