It was very nice staying at Joao's place. The place is newly refurbished, very clean and I found the bed quite comfortable. There are few rooms being rented to Airbnb in the property so we met other travellers during our stay, which is quite nice. The only downside of the place is the shower. There is only one shower, and at the time we were there it was not functioning very well. If you are looking to enjoy the nightlife of Lisbon, the location is perfect. It is in the busy Bairro Alto, however, from the flat, you cannot hear any of the noise.
