Our stay in Margarida's house was perfect! The house is very nice with great attention to details. For the check in she suggested to meet up near the house in order to show us the way to reach it more easily and when we arrived at the apartment we did find sweets, bread and something for breakfast in the fridge for us. She spent some time to give us some useful tips about the city and restaurants. Also the check out was very fast and easy. Margarida is the better host we have ever met indeed!
The position of the house is very convenient to reach every part of the city, and we had the sensation to breathe still an authentic Portuguese atmosphere. Restaurants, supermarket, bars, main attraction are literally just a few minutes from the apartment. This made our stay very comfortable because we could decide to make a "pit stop" as have a rest, take a shower, eat, every time we wanted. Since the apartment is in an historical building the construction technologies used for walls and floors do not allow a complete sound insulation with neighbors and the street, therefore we noticed an introspection with the closest apartment and with the life of the bar downstairs. Since we live in the historical center too we are completely used to this kind of introspection, so it wasn't a problem at all, but I think is pretty important to know it.
We really appreciated the care Margarida had for us and we enjoyed our stay very much. When we will come back to Lisbon for sure we will choose this apartment again!
