We had a lovely stay at Sarah & Pedro’s place in Lisbon!
This was our first time in Lisbon and the close proximity to the airport meant it was super easy to get to and check in. Communication was good from the hosts and their colleagues.
The area is nice and quiet, it is about a 15 minute taxi drive from the centre of Lisbon but taxis are very cheap (use Bolt or Uber, only cost about €4/£2-3!!)
As others have said, the apartment is top floor with no lift so bear this in mind if you struggle with stairs or have heavy luggage.
As it’s so close to the airport you do get planes overhead, this wasn’t an issue for us and there weren’t really any from about 11pm - 7am.
The facilities in the property are great - everything you’d need in the kitchen to cook a good meal! Even a coffee machine that was very appreciated.
The apartment was very clean upon arrival. The balcony is the star of the show, it’s amazing!!
There’s a LIDL about 5-10 minute walk away, apart from that there is not much in terms of restaurants or shops nearby.
There are only two things which could’ve been improved to make the experience better.
1) The locks to get into the apartment were very tricky to use and we often stood for a while trying to unlock the doors. In the end we figured out the ‘knack’ to doing it but this took a while! Might be good to maintain the locks or give guests a guide on opening them.
2) The TV seemed quite old and didn’t work very well, it kept turning off randomly and switching between apps by itself.
These weren’t big things at all, but things I think were worth mentioning!
Overall we had a lovely visit!
