Ana is a great host and made us (my wife and me) feel welcome even before we arrived in Lisbon by exchanging messages and letting us know what to expect. The apartment was very much like we expected it to be - the kitchen facilities exceeded our expectations in fact. Even though Ana was unable to meet us upon arrival since we came in quite late in the night, she had left behind a detailed set of notes to help us get familiar with the apartment. Ana's contact - Manuel, the person who picked us up at the airport was also extremely helpful in giving us a quick talk through the map that was available in the apartment.

The neighborhood offers a unique experience of living in a heritage location. It has tons of restaurants, grocery stores and cafes and offers easy access to other parts of town with good tram and bus connectivity.
