The home is nicely located within a very short distance to the Central Oriente Station. This is very convenient, as lots of public transportation connect/depart from this station (metro, local bus, bus station (going outside of Lisbon), taxi service. Parque das Naçoes, Ponte Vasco da Gama, Altice Arena, to name a few are within walking distance; and the airport is approximately 10 min drive.
The space is located in the upstairs part of the house, which provides some privacy. The room my sister and I stayed was comfortable; it had a full size bed, an area to hang your clothes and a desk with a tv. The room is most ideal for one person and they did offer to change us rooms, but we were okay to stay in that room since we were only there for 2 nights. The upstairs area is a shared space with others whom might be staying, but we fortunately had the space to ourselves (there is one more room upstairs). The common areas are the bathroom which is very spacious, clean and has a nice decorative touch, the eating area has a small table to sit 4, a small fridge, coffee maker, plates and utensils and a few other items I can’t recall. There is tea, sugar and a couple of water bottles for guests. There is also a small living room and has a couch and a tv. A few things to keep in mind; the stairs leading to the area are a bit narrow and a bit steep so be careful with your luggage, the roof is built on an slanted angle so watch you head when getting out of bed or near the edge of the living space, and the windows re awesome but do not have any netting which in turn we had lots of mosquito visitors (I came home with lots of mosquito bites). It was hot so we wanted to have the window open to let in some fresh air and must have been so tired that we didn’t realize the first night until we woke up and killed several of the mosquitos 😬.may be a good idea to add some netting :). But despite we still had a pleasant stay and would stay again; we just didn’t open the window the second night.
One last thing, Joseph and his mother were very sweet; she was very talkative and provided some info for my sister that added to her experience doing a solo day trip to the Sanctuary of Fatima; and she arranged for a reasonable fee for Gabriel to provide transportation to the airport since we had a very early flight. We were very appreciative of this since this was our last stop before flying home, and we were very tired from our active 3 week trip around Europe.
