Oh how we really wanted to love this apartment. But, there were things that we just couldn’t overlook. There were pros and cons staying here.
Pros:
1. It was easy to walk to a lot of
sights and restaurants.
2. The hosts had put in the apartment...milk, bread, butter, fruit...which was a nice touch.
Cons:
1. We knew that there were stairs ( 4 flights is what the information said on Airbnb) but that is not the case. It is 10 flights of stairs.
2. When we checked into the apartment there is a strong damp/mildew smell, that never went away even after having the windows open the whole trip.
3. The apartment is next to a bar and a restaurant. Which is convenient for a drink.....but the 4 nights we were at apartment....there were anywhere from 20 to 30 drunk men singing sport/ football songs in the sidewalk and street in front of the apartment. And this went on until 2:00 in the morning!! And each morning the sidewalk and street is totally trash with beer bottles.( it does get cleaned up later on in the day.)
4. The mattress in the master bedroom is so hard you can barley sleep in it.
Like I said before, we were really excited to stay here, I thought the pictures looked really cute.
We still had an amazing time in Lisbon.🇵🇹
