It is hard to put in words just how special this place and the care I received was. Zi is what I love most about Airbnb, when your host is a resident who loves the city where they host, and loves to create the sense of “home” for their guests.
Zi presented me with the most wonderful and like-a-local recommendations catered to my tastes and interests - which as a first time Lisboa traveler was so appreciated. And her space itself is cozy and quiet amidst it being on an amazing and active street and part of town.
Walkable to truly everything (which is how I’d recommend this exploring lisbon most). Only thing to note for future travelers is (and having nothing to do with Zi) - if you are a HEAVY packer, it is in an older cobblestone-y staircase-y part of town and you may have a task ahead of you if lugging heavy/plentiful luggage.
So moral of that tip is… pack lighter = enjoy lisbon more.
Thank you Zi for everything.
