Joao was very welcoming on our arrival, even though it was almost 1am! The apartment was very homely and had everything we needed, the shower in particular was great, and the back courtyard is a brilliant sun trap all afternoon. Rita and Joao had left us some fruit and chocolate which was delicious.

The apartment is less than a 5 minute walk to the metro stop, the metros are quick and regular. Joao also helped us to map a couple of routes on the metro on our arrival. Rita sent us some recommendations for food whilst we were there and was very easy to contact during our stay, they are a lovely couple!

Lisbon is a great city to visit, and we would highly recommend staying here for a home from home.
