Ilda is a great host and the apartment the perfect place for a stay in Lisbon a bit away from the touristic spots. The apartment is nicely furnished and very comfortable. We enjoyed the small balcony to take a first look at Lisbon in the morning and have a good night beer in the evening. The apartment is as quiet as a place downtown can be. You can hear the neighbors living their lives, but we were never disturbed by that. We enjoyed the multicultural neighborhood very much! The Largo Independente offers great cafés and bars, and Lisbon's most beautiful viewpoint Señora de Monte is only some steps away. Ilda is a perfect host. All arrival details were agreed previously and everything went well and communication was perfectly reliable. In the apartment we found a nice welcome package including a bottle of wine, some very tasty cheese and even an ice-cream in the fridge. So all in all: highly recommended for a stay in Lisbon off the broader touristic tracks.
