Weekend stay in Lisbon.
The apartment was beautiful. Clean and well decorated. Had everything needed for a short stay. Neighborhood was lively and the location was excellent as there a great deal of attractions within walking distance. It is a very lovely apartment and Joaoa was a wonderful gracious host. He was in constant communication and gave some wonderful recommendations for dining and tourist attractions.
I would give the this rental 5 stars except for 1 thing, and it is significant.
The neighborhood, while lively and attractive with many bars and restaurants nearby, is not quiet at night. The street gets crowded and the bar on the ground floor plays music well into the late, late into the night. If you are the type of person that would want to go to sleep before 4 AM on a weekend, this is not the place for you.
Otherwise, If you love the nightlife and intend to party the night away, Joao's place is perfect!
