Lovely apartment, great location

Marcello kept us well informed about how and when we could access the apartment. He also left us a bowl of fruit, which was really appreciated. The apartment was as described, well furnished and well-equipped - the sofa bed was super comfortable - and the location was ideal, with a number of fun bars and great restaurants just outside the building. I would recommend this place, and would stay here again. It was nice to have a personal touch from the owner. He also left an information book in four languages. We really couldn't fault the place or the service.

Atmospheric Historic Neighbourhood

Great location if you are ok with steps. (80 down to the main town area). The neighbourhood is really delightful. If you stay in the sofa bed room, there is no window but the door to the bathroom is opaque glass, as is the window to the bedroom, so does give a little natural light.

Fantastic Location

This apartment is in a great location, within walking distance of the main squares, shopping area, castle and the bohemian Alfama district. There is a great cafe/restaurant literally on the doorstep which did the best breakfast omelettes, and a 30-second walk up the winding road above took us to a street buzzing with fantastic busy little bars. We enjoyed sitting quietly in the window seat of the apartment also, drinking coffee while looking out over the Lisbon rooftops each morning. We like staying in cities close to all the amenities, and this was perfect for us.

Perfect

A few days trip to Lisbon was made all the better for being at Marcello's place. A surprisingly good apartment, unusually well equipped, clean, spacious, welcoming and peaceful at night though within easy walking distance to down town liveliness. So glad we chose this place and can thoroughly recommend it as a couple.

Perfect place to stay

This is the perfect place to stay in Lisbon! The apartment was spotless and in such a convenient location. Everything we needed was there and Marcello’s communication was excellent. It’s in a bustling area but down a quiet street so wasn’t noisy in the evenings. I’d definitely stay here again and would 100% recommend it to anyone staying in Lisbon.

Apartment is in a great location with a superb restaurant on the doorstep. Not suitable for elderly or infirm as lots of hills and steps. The owner was very accommodating letting us check out later and very efficient at communication.

Very nice apartment in a great location

I had a very good time at Marcello’s place. The check inn was very simple. It’s located at a very central part of Lisbon but it’s super quiet and there are no street noises. I really liked the view from the window and there’s plenty of sunlight. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking and there were fruits on the table when I arrived, which was nice. Highly recommended for a short or long stay in Lisbon.

Marcello's Apartment

Marcello's apartment had everything we needed for our stay in February. It was comfortable and warm, good cable television, electrical equipment, bathroom and shower. Its central location and proximity to public transport made it easy for us to explore Lisbon and beyond. We found some great restaurants only a short walk away. We had a great week and thank Marcello for his hospitality. John and Anne.
