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.

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.
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
We loved our stay here. Really nice and spacious living area and a well equipped modern kitchen. The outside area has an incredible vista if an impressive 17th century church that is lit up at night. The local area has a vast array of bars, cafes and restaurants. We hope to be able to visit again soon.
Lovely, traditional feel property. Duplex, great roof terrace. Very well equipped, clean, tidy. Perfect base to explore Lisbon. Owner very prompt with answers to our questions. Highly recommend.
Very pleased with the owners and the real time communications. Couldn’t have been happier w our experience.

Nice place in Lisbon
This is a great proprety in the heart of Lisbon.
It has everything you could ask for. I liked the balcony from the master bedroom. Great to sit and have a glass of wine in the evening.
Communcation with Owner could have been better but was probably partly my fault as well.
Great stay. Thank you for sharing your property,

Well positioned apartment for touring
Good sized, spacious and clean apartment. Sleeping arrangements comfortable for accommodating 4. The sleeper couch was not very comfortable - perhaps a more comfortable version could replace it?
Location was perfect for all our sightseeing needs and transport links were good. Local supermarket for basic supplies was adequate and conveniently located. Local eateries all easily located and not too far but fabulous! We had some great meals out, specifically at Gato Prado and Atiro te o Rio at Cacilhas.
We had a great stay. Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
Sonya

Un appartement idéal au cœur de Lisbonne
L'appartement est tres bien situé au bord de l'Alfama, à deux pas du Panthéon et d'une station de métro, point de départ idéal pour sillonner les ruelles de Lisbonne. L'intérieur est clair, spacieux, tout confort, avec une jolie terrasse.
Nous avons eu de très bon contacts avec la propriétaire qui s'est montrée tres prévenante. Nous recommandons absolument ce logement !

The house was alright/ organisation bad
The upstairs toilet had a bad smell. We were told we had to leave the house @10 am even though we had said that our flight back was an evening flight.
Also even though it says towels and linen provided - you're not allowed to use them?
All in all it feels like we paid for an apartment and weren't allowed to use facilities. I've used owners direct before and this is different.
The apartment is decent and close to transport. Not close to the beach unless you drive.

Lovely apartment
We stayed 4 nights in this lovely apartment in Lisbon. It was light,airy quiet and plenty big enough for all five of us. The owner let us arrive early as our flight arrived in Lisbon at 9 ish in the morning. There was plenty to see and do in the surrounding area but it was nice to sit out in the sunshine and read on the balancy in the afternoons. A real treat in February. We couldn't get the TV to work but in ways that was a bonus.
So close to many restaurants and shops and the place was perfect for the 5 of us. We left our laptop and they facilitated us getting back a few days later!
This was a very large, wonderful apartment steps away from all that the old section of Lisbon has to offer! We loved all the amenities that the host provided along with the wonderful rooftop terrace- perfect for evening wine and morning coffee! Should we come to Lisbon again, we would definitely stay at this amazing home!
We had a wonderful stay here. It was a great location for us, easy to walk around to all the locations we were interested in seeing. Plus there was on street parking for our rental car. If we return to Lisbon for a second visit/stay we would most definitely see if this place was available again. The hosts were amazing responsive to our questions, we could not be happier with our stay.
It was great. Location was only 5 minute walk to subway that was only 3 stops ro Rossio sqaure. The host did advice about amout of steps to unit. Was not bad but is something to be mindfull about.
