All in all we enjoyed our stay at Joana and Diogo’s apartment as it is central and in the midst of Lisbon’s nightlife and that was just what we were after.
If you’re looking for a quiet place to stay it is probably not a good choice as the area gets really noisy until late at night. Or bring ear plugs :)
Be aware that the apartment is in an old Lisbon building with a very steep stair case and for people with restricted mobility this might pose some problems. For us it just added to the charm of the building.
The apartment had all the amenities we needed. We had however one issue with it. There was was a strong smell from the bathroom pipes but this usually was solved by running the shower for a while. Still it felt quite uncomfortable at times. The smell seems to be a persistent problem unfortunately as many of the other reviews say the same.
Communication with the hosts’ team was quick and efficient and very friendly and they tried to help us with the smell problem.
