Staying at Nuno's place you will be swept up into the life of a Lisbon actor and any friends that pass through (though it may mean you don't see much of him as he is nocturnal!). I felt like I lived there for a week. Be sure to ask questions you have when you see him, as you may not again for a while! He is open and trusting. The apartment is perfectly located in the beautiful and pleasant Principe Real district, right opposite one of the best Pastelarias in Lisbon.

For people who like things a bit more black and white, I recommend communicating your needs clearly to him. eg breakfast is 'included' but it means eat whatever you find in the kitchen, which for me was fine but others may want to know what they're getting.

The living room is as beautiful in the pictures and Nuno is an enthusiastic spirit. You can feel at home very quickly. I slept well as the bedroom faces inwards from the street. The shower is good and always had hot water. The flat is on 3rd floor and there is no lift, but if you find that a struggle, you will find Lison's 9 hills a struggle, so maybe choose a different destination!
