Because it's a new renovation, it's actually better than the pictures. Quality of fixtures very high as well as the small things like nice bath towels, free coffee, etc. Neighborhood is very lively for the young people of Lisboa with many small bars right nearby, so you feel like you are living with the locals rather than with the tourists. Yet you can walk 5-10 minutes to where all the tourists gather, so it remains very convenient. J&J are wonderful hosts, offering guidance in person and leaving booklets to help the visitors. We were very happy to stay in their home
