We enjoyed staying at Sahba’s place and he was an excellent communicative host! We travel full time and this is one of the best equipped Airbnb’s we have stayed at. It even includes the tiny details that you normally don’t find when traveling such as facial tissues, a scale in the bathroom, nail polish remover - it’s the little things that really make this place stand out. We had some internet issues but was quickly resolved.
Pros:
* excellent equipped kitchen for any meals
* 2 bedrooms and 2 baths
* Washing machine is very handy
* Quiet neighborhood- sometimes could hear sirens from ambulance on highway but not anything crazy
* The private garden and playground behind the building was great for the kids
* Bathroom has great hot water and water pressure
* The space heaters are large enough to keep the rooms warm in the cold months
* Communication with the host was seamless and pleasant
* Location near metro was nice
* Everything is nearby: groceries, restaurants, etc
* The elevator was very convenient since it’s on the 3rd floor (European), (or 4th floor- American)
* Well equipped with paper towels, toilet paper, etc never had to worry about running out or purchasing ourselves
* We enjoyed the books, there were some in English’s be in Portuguese
* The visitor wall to leave behind where you are from was fun to see all of the travelers postcards before us
* There were more than just the basic oil and salt and pepper seasonings in the kitchen which were pleasantly surprising
Cons:
* the beds are stiff but did the job
* No tv (knew this ahead of time but would’ve still been nice)
* Located a bit far from the “sight seeing” locations of Lisbon - again not a deal breaker as transportation is easy to find
This was a classic Airbnb that is rarely found and Sahba knows how to host! We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again if we come through Lisbon in the future! Thank you Sahba!
