The room at Maria's place is very spacious and has a lovely calm feel to it. Maria is an excellent host, very welcoming and helpful. Maria's place is not far from Jeronimos Monastery (10 mins walk away). Maria is a great communicator and it's easy to keep in touch when making your arrangements to stay here. The local area is very safe and I felt quite happy walking back alone late at night from the bus / tram stop after an evening in central Lisbon. Overall a great value place to stay. Thoroughly recommend this place.
