The apartment is in an old building and fully renovated by us. We knocked down many walls to create an open and airy feeling throughout the apartment. The terrace was a key feature for us when we bought the place and we have spent many lovely mornings, lunches and evenings there admiring the views and letting the Lisbon sun in. The roof window on the second floor ads to airiness. We love cooking together, and since there are so many great food products available in Portugal, we created a kitchen that is made for team cookings. Lots of space and a kitchen island makes it a great place to be together. The kitchen is integrated in the living room making that area the natural hub for friends and family. Alfama, the old town with its myriad of alleys and lanes, bars and restaurants are just outside the door. Explore the Castle, the Pantheon and the Monastery by foot and take the chance to buy some antiques at the Feira de Ladra (Lisbon's biggest and best flea market). The metro is only 200 meters away from the apartment and gives you easy access to all Lisbon's attractions and there are buses on the street itself getting you out to Expo is 15 minutes.

Great location to explore Lisbon. Lots of restaurants nearby. Sadly the weather was not great during our stay so we were not able to use the outdoor space.
It’s was a great location and overall amazing stay

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Old town Lisbon
Property is nice, however the stairs are hard to climb at different levels. The apartment is nicely decorated but has a moldy smell and is damper than other properties in Portugal. There were a few leaks in the roof which I communicated to the host and she was very responsive.
The place was shown how it is in the photos the balcony upstairs is beautiful with the view of the national pantheon, it’s a good location and the host was good at communicating and would recommend, however it is on the third floor so carrying luggage up is a struggle with the stairs.
Our first trip to Lisbon. The location is very close to the harbor/train station so incredibly easy to get to. We walked to many locations, including nearby train, metro and hop on/off tour bus (Green line stop 11.) The backyard patio is incredible. Good common area with kitchen/dining/living integrated so we could all spend time together. The host was very easy to communicate with and made the trip a joy.
We loved staying here for our time in Lisboa - it was a fantastic retreat after busy days exploring the city! Ekaterina and Patrik were quick to respond and help us through any issues we had. Thank you!!
This apartment worked out perfectly for us. We were sad we couldn't use the terrace because of the weather but everything else was great.

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
the good and the bad
The Good: The place is in a great location and check in was easy. The place has all the modern conveniences.
The Bad: The place smells moldy and the towels after one shower smell of mold. The shower curtain was gross and moldy. The second and third room mattresses need to be replaced. The unit was a bit cold and no heating. There were dead bees in the unit and all over in the hallways. I know it is hard with old buildings.
We still enjoyed seeing Lisbon.
Myself and 4 friends had wonderful stay at this flat. The rooftop terrace and views of the cathedral were wonderful. The flat was spacious had everything we needed, lovely out and some nice art, a great shower and a bath and comfortable beds. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Ekaterina
Our family of 5 enjoyed this apartment. There was plenty of space for everyone and the suite upstairs was perfect. The balcony off the upstairs suite was very nice and had a great view of the church nearby. Having a washer and dryer was convenient. Communication with the owner was easy. We highly recommend this apartment!
Nearest of metro station, this apparment is lovely. We have had a good moment.
Thanks Ekaterina
