This property has a perfect location in Chiado and is a short walk to everything you want to see in Lisbon. Safe location and there are nice restaurants and bars steps from the front door.
Check in was easy. Host friendly, met us at check in. Apartment is nice but if you are looking for a soft bed this is not the place for you. Master bed quite firm. Second bathroom has an occasional smell that probably can’t be controlled.
Overall a very nice stay!
Everything was perfect. Luis was responsive and the apartment was ideal. Located in a busy neighborhood but still super quiet. New appliances and an adorable balcony for breakfast or late night drinks. Visit Taberna da Rua das Flores just up the hill for fantastic food.
There were a lot of stairs but it was perfect after a nice email. We will be back for sure!
Space was nice: 1 large primary bedroom, 1 medium with a double (but slanted roofs so duck) and 1 with a day bed. Nice terrace and kitchen. But…I have to be honest for others, it really smelled like sewer. They have a LOT of air fresheners everywhere but that didn’t really help a lot.
We very much enjoyed out stay at this apartment. The location was perfect for us. We were 4 adults, myself and my 3 adult children, all able to walk the hills in Lisbon. The apartment was being cleaned on our early arrival and we were gratuitously allowed to leave our bags inside until our 1500hr check in time. Luis had been in contact prior to our arrival so we had contact numbers which is very reassuring when you are using VRBO and there is no "in person" meeting on arrival. We just called Luis and he gave us the required info for check in. Be aware that the apartment is 3 floors up, 70 steps, no elevator but again as we are reasonably fit, it was not an issue. The true measure of a review is "would you stay there again" and our answer based on our experience is YES, we would!
Location was amazing! Being 6 flights upstairs no elevator, not so great. Beds could use a topper, all were very firm with nothing between you and the springs. Couch was the best place to sleep. Cute place.
The apartment was spacious and well equipped, and check in was easy. We really enjoyed the location- close to lots of nightlife, Time Out Market yet walkable to the main tourist sites. The only negative was the smell of drains from the main bathroom, which could be quite overpowering at times. We tended to just keep the door shut and use the en suite instead.
The check-in process was just fine. The property was as described. It was comfortable, just a bit dated. Getting the luggage up the stairs was a haul, but luckily it was only once. We certainly got our steps in! The only things I would say are there aren't too many dishes, but we really didn't cook, you had to be aware of the sloping ceilings and there are boards loose on the deck. Otherwise, it was a nice place to stay and a good location.
Luís was a tremendous host who went out of his way to make sure we would be comfortable in his former home. The unit itself is plenty roomy and kitchen decent for city center standards. The location is 10 of 10. So easy to get around. Highly recommend
The apartment is very nice and clean. The location is close to the city center, however the apartment was still quiet and peacefull. There was enough room for all of us and the terrace was a big plus.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was centrally located within walking distance to most of the sites. The balcony with table and chairs was a nice feature, enabling us to have breakfast outside and hang out in the evenings.
We had a great stay here - the apartment was spacious, clean and bright. The neighborhood was perfect for getting around by foot, tram or metro. We stayed with two young kids and it was perfect for a family. Luis was a wonderful host - would highly recommend staying here!
The layout and location of the property was perfect. However, there were some concerns with how the apartment was cleaned between guests. The hall bathroom had a very smelly toilet brush, hair in the shower, and a missing door knob. Be warned the apartment is up 6 flights of stairs, so pack light. Overall, a great property with a few issues.
