Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. The flat was spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed. It is located in Portuguese neighbourhood with many local shops and restaurants. Once we worked out the bus and metro arrangements it was easy to get to and from the city but a taxi fare was very reasonable-about 5 Euro. All in all a fantastic flat which, while not in the heart of the lively centre of Lisbon was quiet and had all the attractions easily accessible. I totally recommend it.
