I’m not sure where to start with my review. Vasco is amazing! The care and concern that he shows is outstanding! We are here for the month of September and he welcomed us with many goodies; wine, cheese, fruit, bread, crackers, coffee, pastes de nata etc. He made sure we were well taken care of! He gave us a personal tour of the neighborhood and showed us the best places to purchase all the goodies! He also gave us a detailed list of venues! He showed us where to have the best Bifanas and they were excellent with an amazing price. Vasco goes above and beyond as a host! He is also an awesome neighbor as he lives in the building and checks in to make sure we are not in need of anything. From arranging a driver to pick us up at the airport to detailed directions on taking the metro, trains and buses he leaves no details out! Madalena our weekly housekeeper is also awesome! The apartment is spotless thanks to her! We appreciate her very much!
The apartment is just as described and has everything you could possibly need. The location is perfect for walking to all the sites in Lisbon (there are some very steep streets! but you do get use to them) We are right up the hill from all means of transportation. There is the metro, the trains, the buses, the trolleys and the ferries all within walking distance. Just up the road there is a great little restaurant/bar that overlooks the river. You can sit and enjoy the view. There are little grocery stores and bakeries that have all you need. You can walk to the Chiado, Baxia, Rosario, the Janta Justa Elevator and all the great little restaurants throughout Lisbon and the incredible views. I couldn’t ask for a nicer place to stay. It is a very enjoyable home away from home. Vasco and Vera you are both outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful Lisbon experience.
