Overall our stay with Alexey was great. Lisbon is a beautiful city and after a 24 hours of traveling to get to Portugal Alexey was kind enough to have us check in early and get some sleep. Upon arrival Alexey greeted us and provided a thorough walk through of things to do in Lisbon (as well as potential itineraries to accomplish these things). When we entered the guest house (which is separate from the main house) we were happy to find not only a clean place but also some treats for our stay (I.e., Wine, Coffee, Yogurt, Milk, Granola, Bread, Jam, Deli Meats, and Sardines).
As far as the place itself:
-The location was great, we had easy access to everything we wanted to see and found that if we weren’t within walking distance or just didn’t feel like walking (the hills can be rough) we were able to get very cheap Uber ($5-10 per trip).
-The patio and the guest house are a sight to see. And although the guest house isn’t the biggest it provided enough room for everything we needed/wanted to do.
-My only complaint and this isn’t a knock on Alexey or the stay itself as it isn’t advertised as having AC but it can get quite hot in the guest house. There is a portable fan which Alexey provided but at times this didn’t cool down the unit enough. *Note: We were here during a massive heatwave throughout Eastern Europe so this could be an outlier*
Overall we had a great time in Lisbon!
