In spite of our plane arriving over an hour late, Vera gave us a warm welcome and a full explanation of where the most interesting places to visit were situated. The apartment is small, but ideal for a couple, and is ideally situated for touring the city. We appreciated the food and wine we found on our arrival. Joao and Vera were extremely kind and helpful, especially when Bridgett damaged her knee and had to go to hospital. We would love to stay there again and warmly recommend Joao and Vera's place to visitors to Lisbon.
