Great place to stay right in the heart of the old part of the Lisbon due to the following:
1. Communication - Pedro was fast and effective with onsite / local support.
2. Support - Pedro meet us at the closest car park to escort us to his apartment and briefed us on everything we needed, even helped with our luggage.
3. Layout / Design - For a studio apartment in the old town, the layout provided us with everything we needed.
4. Location - While it is located in the Alfama quarter, it is not close to the areas where the locals socialise on the streets late in the evening, so noise wasn’t a problem for us.
5. Personal touches - Pedro bought us 4 Portuguese tarts and some fresh fruit for our arrival.
#NB: Pedro has another Airbnb apartment in a more up market area of Lisbon that may interest those looking for a something more.
CAUTION
Anyone with accessibility limitations (size and/or mobility) could be challenged by the narrow and steep entry stairs, and the small shower; I am 6’2” / 188cm tall and weight 90kg, and I found the shower restrictive to use.
There is nothing the owner / host (Pedro) can do due to the limited space he has to work with; it is a great apartment nestled into the dense old suburb of Alfama.
