Carlos' apartment is the perfect, quiet home-base for exploring Lisbon. The view is truly fantastic; I loved gazing out the bedroom window at the vista. It's Carlos himself who makes the stay truly special. He is a kind, generous, and thoughtful host. We had some great discussions and I learned a lot about Lisbon's history and landmarks. He even drove me to the Oriente station to pick up my rental car -- truly above and beyond.
The room has all the necessities and the kitchen is well-equipped. Like many places in Lisbon, it's on a steep hill. But hey, exercise!
