Maria was very kind! Really easy to talk to, and perfect english. We felt very welcome. On arrival we drank some coffee, had a little chat, and Maria gave us some tips on what might be worth visiting and other practical information. The rest of the days we went our own ways. Maria wasn't at home a lot (maybe to give us some more space?), but when we ran in to each other there was always a friendly little chat, and she was helpfull wherever she could.
It was our first time staying in somebody's home, but we felt really comfortable.
The apartment was nice and very clean. It's right across a train station and close to a metro station. It was easy getting to and away from the apartment by metro, even late in the evening.
We were glad we chose a location outside the centre of the city. Lisboa is a big and lively city and coming 'home' to a somewhat quiter neughbourhood definitely felt more relaxed.
Maria thank you for you good care and hospitality! Wish you all the best.
Love, Loes & André
