João was a friendly, helpful and very responsive host. He met us at the apartment, showed us through, gave tips for places to eat and things to do and helped with parking our car. A fantastic introduction to Lisbon. The apartment was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. A bonus for long term travelling with 2 large suitcases was the lift in the building and great washer. The apartment was sunny and had a great cross breeze with the windows open. It was close to tram stops, metro and walking to main attractions. You needed to close all the windows at night as it was quite noisy but double glazing kept it quiet and a pedestal fan was provided.
