Where do I start?
Location, location, location...
This place ended up being the perfect location for me. direct route on Red Line metro, end-to-end, from the airport to São Sebastião station made getting to this Airbnb easy, simple and direct, and at the cheap cost of €1.50. Also, São Sebastião station is the interchange between Red Line and Blue Line metro. Blue Line is what will take you downtown to most of the tourist sites you might be interested in seeing. This location was perfect for my first visit to Lisbon and Portugal.
Super clean! Rose takes great pride in her with and this place was cleaned several times a week and very thorough. This is one of the cleanest Airbnb I've ever stayed in. In fact, it's cleaner than most hotels I've stayed in also. She also did my laundry for me as I planned to spend my second week in Madrid, Spain.
Comfortable! Another review mentioned the bed and bedding being comfy. Yes! I slept so good because the bed was so comfortable. It got a little cold at night, but the space heater in the closet worked perfect to make the room comfy at night too.
The São Sebastião metro station is literally a 3 minute walk down the street. Crossing the main road there, is a 7 story shopping mall with tons of food places at the ground level and a supermarket. But you don't even have to go that far because Lidl supermarket is 2 minute walk down the street and great prices on groceries and about anytime else you might need.
I'm normally a heavy Uber user, but on this trip, metro works so well and gets you close to most places you'll want to go in town and it's so much cheaper than Uber. Do yourself a favor and invest the 5 to 10 minutes to figure out metro. It's great here in Lisbon.
You'll also find tons of great souvenir shops around north of Commerce Square area, close to the bay. Fastest way to get there is take Metro to Terreiro do Paço station and take the north exit, it will bring you up right in the square.
Lisbon is an amazingly beautiful city. I only spent a week there and fell in love with the place. If you add it to your bucket list, book your Airbnb here. You won't be disappointed.
