This flat was the perfect place to stay and explore Lisbon. It is right next to the metro which takes you everywhere you’d want to go. We day tripped to Sintra, explored Belém, Alfama, Chiado, and more with our metro pass. The flat is also close to the supermarket, pastry shops, and a variety of restaurants. We were originally supposed to stay in the Chiado area, but when that host cancelled on us we booked Casinha Da Tia Maria Project’s place and we are so happy we did. The overall neighborhood was safe and the prices in the shops were a lot less than in the Chiado area that was full of tourists. The hosts were attentive and very responsive. I know someone mentioned noise from the street - you are in a city and you are going to get noise. It really didn’t bother any of the three adults that stayed in the flat, and if it helps it was much quieter on the weekend. If noise is an issue for you bring some ear plugs, but don’t let us dissuade you from this amazing flat. We adored the balcony space as well. It really is a lovely space!
