We enjoyed the fantastic view at the Travelers Nest and the large space and comfortable couches. David who let us into the apartment was very friendly and helpful, we did need to wait about 15 minutes for him at the door to the apartment as he was greeting other Airbnbers at a different location. We really appreciated Rick Steves pocket guide to Lisbon that was left in the box of information.
As seniors, we found the light in the kitchen very dim and the upstairs bathroom needed additional bulbs. We were cold in the apartment for our winter stay in January as we did not leave the wall heaters on 24/7. The five wall heaters were not very effective heating such a large space. If you had on the heaters and used the water kettle or the hair dryer at the same time the breaker flipped. The portable heater/fan was more effective but you also needed to limit the use of the other heaters or appliances. The bed with it’s duvet kept us warm at night with the heat off though was a bit soft for our liking.
Communication was excellent and always courteous. We highly recommend taking an Uber if you are arriving from the airport or train station as taxis could be quite costly. Also, be especially aware of your belongings on crowded buses and trolleys.
We highly recommend Traveler’s Nest, and other than a few careless tourist mistakes on our part, we had a wonderful time and thank you Su for being a gracious host.
