Maria's loft is a quiet, stylish and airy sanctuary well located in Chiado that you are only a few minutes away from the metro / key sights but its amazingly quiet since she has used soundproof double-paned windows. Being perched over the rooftops it also has the most amazing views of the river and the Christo Rei statue, I found myself enjoying lingering in the sunny and airy living room with the views even though there were so many sights yet to visit outside! The entire studio is so well designed with its cantilevered staircase, large windows, skylight and minimalist but functional elements, its given me some great ideas for future home renovation. Maria has carefully planned for all the needs of guests so its very well equipped and has even compiled an excellent guide book for local places to visit, eat and shop. Many thanks again Maria for your friendly hospitality and cant wait to visit your place again the next time!
