It was an absolute delight to stay in the house of André. The place actually looks even better in real life as in the picture, which might seem impossible. From the moment we arrived, we felt home. This is possibly also due to the warm welcome André provided. Taking out time to help us with our bags, show us around, tell us stories about the house, his family, and wanting to know as much as possible as he could about us, he took out a lot of time to show us the best spots to visit in & around the city, also the off-beaten track, which we loved. He made us feel so welcome and showed us so many great little spots, we felt really sad to part after 5 days. You can definitly stay a month and still have plenty of things to do, recommended by André.
Not only did we feel at home in the house, we loved the neighbourhood which is so authentic. Neighbours were friendly & welcoming & very helpful whenever we seemed lost.
The house is situated in the most beautiful part of Lisbon in my humble opinion. We had a wonderful stay.
We stayed during the June festival & loved the atmosphere all around. A little tip is: bring some earplugs as the party can go on for quite some time.
And listen to André, he has great taste. :-)
I fell in love with the city & plan to visit it again in the future. If so, I already know where I want to stay: André's place. As it has felt like a home to me from the moment we arrived until the moment I wrote this comment (1 week after leaving).
Another big up for André is that he is immensly helpful & genuinly interested in what we did, where we went. We had some little logistical problem before leaving and he was so helpful & concerned. He is such a sweet & warmhearted person.
Book this place, you won't regret it!
