Hi Ines-
Thank you for the lovely stay in your gracious apartment. The cleaning person met us and let us in to your place. There was a language barrier but we were able to communicate about the keys and wi-fi and she was very helpful with showing us the parking routine! Your book with restaurant and grocery store locations was very useful as well.
Your location is fantastic relative to walking everywhere in Lisbon. We rode Tram 28 which we were able to catch right at the plaza above your apartment-the same place we were able to park the car long term. We had wine and cheese on your lovely deck each evening before going to dinner and that was a real treat. Your daughter, Ana, checked in on us and was very helpful in calling a cab for my husband's flight.
Our only complain would be the excessive noise late at night from the adjacent Lisbon Hostel-this street noise woke us each night and lasted for several hours. I am not sure if we where there at an especially noisy time or if that is just the way it is but the last night we slept with all the windows and doors shut in an effort to sound insulate. One of our daughters stayed in the back room which is more like an apartment on the garden and therefore it was much more quiet. When the weather is cooler closing windows wouldn't be a problem but we needed the night air to cool us off and Lisbon is a lovely cool temp in the evenings.
Thanks for the hospitality in your lovely and bright apartment.
With gratitude-
Bill and Molly and daughters
