And and Rita's place is in a great location at the edge of the Alfama district. For that reason it feels less touristy and not as busy as some of the other more central areas of Lisbon. Lisbon is a wonderful city and this was a great place to base ourselves. However we were disappointed with the apartment. It is much much smaller than it appears in the photos. The view is lovely but the place is very small. The apartment was also not as clean as i have come to expect having stayed in many places with Airbnb. There was a lot of mold on the ceiling of the bathroom and also in the shower recess. There were other issues with cleaning, such as mold in sink, dirty dish rack and unclean utensils. The linens were all clean. Communication with the host was very ordinary. She advised me she had sent me information about the area etc via email, when I advised her I hadn't received it she said she would resend that day, didn't get it, so for the next four days I sent her a reminder asking if she would please send. After a fairly abrupt message from me on the last day we finally received the information late on the last night! I was very disappointed with this as I love to get the locals insight into where to eat, visit etc.
