Maria's place was great! Calm neighbourhood, but only a ten minute walk to Alfama (a great area for restaurants and bars). Supermarkets and coffeeshops are all around the apartment.
The room and the bathroom were perfectly clean, towels were provided. The bed was comfy, nothing to complain there.
Maria and her son were very friendly and welcoming! Maria herself does not speak English, but that was no problem herself. She responded to our messages superquick and her son, who speaks English and French, gave us a very warm welcome and tour of the apartment.
A great plus; they have a very sweet and calm labrador :) All in all we highly recommend staying with Maria! Thanks for all!!
