Ilda was absolutely friendly host and gave us good tips for our stay in Lisbon. The apartment was everything we needed and we absolutely loved it. The best thing was that we got to wash our clothes after week traveling. Lisbon is wonderful! Apartment was a bit out of the tourism things with short walking distance from old city Alfama, shopping street in Baixa and bars and restaurants in Chiado. There is very good metro and train connection around the city and to the beach.
