We had a great stay at Rui's place. Rui was there to greet us on our arrival at his home and to show us our room, he explained how everything worked and gave us a run down of things we needed nearby, such as supermarket, breakfast places etc. I would describe the location as close to the tourist precinct but not right in it - this was just what we were looking for This was our first visit to Lisbon, and the location was perfect for walking to many places or alternatively close to public transport. We chose to walk. The room is huge, apart from the bed there is a dining table and chairs, a couple of extra chairs, kettle, cups and plates and a small fridge. The private ensuite bathroom is is not modern but is roomy and functional. The bed is super comfortable. Linen and towels are of good quality. Internet is reliable. Everything is spotlessly clean. Rui is a charming host, friendly and available. Nearby is everything we needed, great little coffee shops, restaurants, parks, convenience stores and a Laundromat. I would not hesitate to stay with Rui on our next visit to Portugal
