First - Ian is a fantastic host! The day we checked in, he met us to show us how to get in and out (the locks in many of the flats in the area can be tricky) and spent extra time chatting with us as we had questions about Portugal more generally. Lola and Ian's apartment is elegantly designed - all the space is utilized in a way that makes the apartment retain a light, airy feeling. The light is Lisbon during the mornings and the golden hour is absolutely beautiful against the Spanish tiled rooftops surrounding the flat - which you can admire through the window in the kitchen. The shower is fantastic and the bed was the most comfortable we slept in while we were traveling through Portugal - as you all know, these two things are so appreciated. The flat is central to everything so we walked to many of Ian and Lola's recommended restaurants and a couple of bars - all of which were great! When we are back in Lisbon we will try to stay at Ian and Lola's again.
