Maria's cute flat is on the second floor of a building located near many central and interesting parts of Lisbon. It is close to the Baixa-Chiado metro station (a bit of a walk uphill, but where in Lisbon isn't?) There are many good restaurants and groceries nearby as well as Rossio and Restauradores plazas and the neighborhoods of Barrio Alto, Chiado, and Baixa. It was easy for me to get around Lisbon from her place.

My room was small but perfectly suited for my needs: a warm bed, clothing rack, desk, chair, and lamp. Her home is nicely decorated, and the bathroom (which you will share with your host) is clean and in working order.
