My girlfriend and I moved from the USA to Lisbon and stayed at the apartment for the first month while looking for a more perminant place to stay.
Mathias was incredibly helpful with the transition - he stocked the apartment and arranged for our airport pick up.

The location of the apartment was awesome. Right in the heart of the alfama with only a 5 minute walk to the train station/metro from which it is simple to access all of Lisbon. Tons of great restaurants options (try Pizzaria Casanova!) and local convience stores provide all of the essentials for cooking in.

We felt very much at home in the apartment. The kitchen was well equipped and the veranda was an amazing place to relax and entertain company. WiFi connection was fast and reliable
