Apartment
- very CLEAN, and charming
- Nice and bright
- lovely view from the windows
- ample supply of clean towels
- traditional Portuguese pastries were waiting for us…yum but couldn’t eat till the next morning
- shower pressure was great
- kitchen area was well-equipped with items you’ll need to make your meal esp if you have dietary restrictions
- Just be aware, apartment is on the top floor (3rd floor) no elevator.
Communication with Luz
- We came in very late from a very late flight arrival and couldn’t get our SIM card at the airport (Vodaphone stores were closed!) She was very accommodating and made sure we got in safe and had everything we needed.
Area
- central and very convenient to a lot of places
- located in a safe area
- can be loud during peak hours but hey, it’s Lisbon, and it’s a happening place
- if you’re from the suburb, bring your earbuds / if you’re from the City, like us, it’s normal noise. We all slept well esp. after walking a lot everyday!
Only cons
- We didn’t get to meet Luz =.(
- There is a low-head clearance right below the loft area (think of Gandalf in Bilbo’s house =.) just be careful…we placed "caution" tapes for reminders. Easy to bump your head esp if you are tall people =.) After the 1st day or so, we got used to it.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay. We just wish we stayed LONGER even a day longer. Thank you, Luz. Your place felt like home. Lisbon is a great place to be!
Abrigada.
