I stayed at Lala’s place with a friend from Wednesday to Sunday in the middle of tourist season this August, and it couldn’t have been more wonderful. Lala wasn’t able to meet us to check us in, but she sent someone else named Bruno who was very responsive via SMS and was easy to coordinate with. He provided us great tips on places to go in Lisbon as well!
The apartment was sparkling clean, and everything seemed practically brand new. The apartment actually had a hair dryer AND free WiFi, which weren’t listed on the Airbnb website that the apartment offered, so that was a life saver since I had trouble getting my cell data to work.
The patio was wonderful, and perfect for sitting out during the morning and drinking coffee or sitting out after the end of walking around Lisbon and having a glass of wine.
There was an espresso machine as well, but no espresso pods, so wasn’t really able to use it. Another thing would have been a couple of extra towels, as it would have been really helpful to have it when we needed one. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook for a night in, with a great working oven and stove top, and a small fridge to keep things cold.
The location was great as well, with lots of shops and small groceries, and great restaurants around the area. The building was safe and there was a key to get in the building and a key for the apartment. The apartment was also very quiet as well so no worries about street noise or neighbors.
It all made for a perfect for a great Airbnb stay. Can’t wait to stay here again soon!
