We had a wonderful experience in Lisboa catching up with family & friends for New Year Eve & New Year Day, partly thanks to Joao and Carla. Their apartment was very well located in the city centre, about 20-30mins walking from the old town (~2-3km). The apartment was well decorated and fully finished with all the things you need for "a truly home away from home". Joao & Carla were exceptionally genuine host, not only of their home but also of their city. We were given all information we need about the city and had no difficult or obstables in communicating with them.
We would always recommend this apartment to everyone!
