Amabela's husband generously met us for an early checkin after we arrived in Lisbon from Seattle after an overnight flight (thank you!) We were greeted with a welcome gift--a nice touch for weary travelers! Their apartment was in the perfect neighborhood for my husband and I. It is easy walking distance to numerous delicious restaurants, shopping, the Market of Thieves, and grocery stores.
We enjoyed walking to other Lisbon neighborhoods, but we really loved that we felt we were staying in a less touristy neighborhood and were always happy to return to Anabela's apartment.
Communication with Anabela was excellent, and her apartment was sparkling clean. All amenities were in the kitchen to cook meals if we wanted. The washing machine also came in handy during our one week stay. The bonus for us was watching the gorgeous sunsets out the living room window in the evenings: postcard perfect. We'll definitely stay at Anabela's place should we return to Lisbon. Excellent value.
