Manuel was the best host we've ever had on AirBnB since we started using it in 2012. He met us at the apartment, and let us leave our bags even though we were early. While we were there, he created a map of places to eat and visit using our google maps app. His recommendations were fantastic- 1 restaurant we even went back to twice!
The apartment is quite spacious. The bedroom is in the back of the apartment away from the street, which was nice, since we had heard Lisbon can be noisy at night. The kitchen was well stocked- Manuel even had bought wine, cheese, ham and bread for our first day there. There's a grocery store about 1 block away that has everything if you want to cook or just eat in. There are a lot of restaurants near by too. The only glitch we encountered was running the heat and the washing machine at the same time. We blew the circuit and Manuel was very patient to walk us through resetting the electric panel via text even though it was after 10 at night.
We couldn't have asked for a more welcoming host and lovely place from which to explore Lisbon!
