Michela and Paulo were fantastic! Michela was out of town so Paulo met us at the apartment, showed us the apartment and gave us a map of Lisbon with some recommendations. He was great! The apartment is in a great neighborhood - close to everything without being in the middle of touristy Baixa. There is a great view from the apartment and we spent several evenings enjoying the view over a bottle of wine. Everything in the apartment was very clean and nicely furnished. We spent three days walking all over Lisbon and it was a perfect place to come back to at the end of the night and feel like you are actually part of the neighborhood, not just a tourist. There are lots of restaurants nearby, just bring good walking shoes.

The apartment is up four flights of stairs at the top of a hill, so pack light. It's also not the easiest to find so be sure to download the map Michela sends ahead of time so you can find your way.

Paulo and Michela are just the nicest hosts ever!
