We truly enjoyed our Christmas stay here. The host was exceptional. Met us at the flat and spent time showing it's features and giving us ideas and directions for places to see and places to eat.The location is excellent and within walking distance of all the great Lisbon sites.
We stayed at three different VRBO places during our 14 day Portugal visit. The owner Filipa not only stands out way above any VRBO visits in terms of communication but also in terms of welcoming you in am getting you ready for your Lisbon visit. She greeted us in person with pastries. After showing us how everything worked in the unit, she sat down and mapped out all the cool sites to visit in Lisbon and surrounding area. The location is so central, we were able to walk to most places within 15 minutes. Grocery store in less than four minute and Bifanas in less than two minutes. On a scale of 1-10, I would give Filipa's unit an 11.
We loved our stay at Filipaâs apartment. She is a wonderful host who makes you feel right at home. She greeted us with info about the area, restaurant suggestions and a sweet treat. The apartment is in a perfect location and made it easy to get around. Weâd stay there again. Thanks Filipa for your hospitality!
Filipa, the property owner, was very attentive, accomodating, gracious and friendly. The property was clean and tidy.The location was perfect. A few minute walk to the city center and the river. Overall excellent
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lisbon! There was so much to see and do, and this location was perfect for us. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. Filippa, our host, was wonderful - she greeted us with delicious pastry, lots of information about Lisbon and the immediate area, and gave us an orientation of the apartment!We highly recommend this place!
To begin with, Filipa the host goes out of her way to get you acclimated! She met us upon arrival, but before that was prompt and thorough in her communications. She explained all the amenities of the apartment and gave great advice on cultural activities. The location is so central to everything and has an elevator, rare in such a historic building! Don't worry about the lack of AC, between the fans and keeping the shutters closed during the day, the space stayed comfortable. I would definitely re-book the next time we are able to visit!
We had a wonderful time in Lisbon. Staying here made it centrally located and easy to walk many places. Filipa was excellent at meeting, explaining, and recommending places for us. Dios Arcos was our favorite very close by.The apartment was very clean and just the right size for me and my wife. Nice shower and kitchen spaces. The breeze at night was perfect - never needed the A/C. The building's old elevator was very well maintained and easy to use. Felt safe and comfortable. Highly recommend.
So many great things about this property and not one negative point. From the very start the communication with the owner was excellent. On our arrival she met us at the door even though it was close to 8pm. She showed us around the apartment, told us about the neighbourhood and welcomed us with two pastels de nata.
The location was absolutely excellent and probably the best area to access all of the distinct parts of Lisbon. Although the apartment is located on a busy street, with the windows closed the apartment is perfectly silent. No worries at all about having a great sleep.
Lots of hot water for the shower, strong wifi signal, comfy bed, elevator to the third floor.
In summary, we would not have a second thought about returning.
The owner was terrific! She responded to every question within minutes sometimes seconds. She was very accommodating and really cared about my concerns, few as they were. The location was minutes from the city center. Looks of shops and restaurants right outside my door.The apartment was not very sound proofed so the folks living above me were a bit annoying but other than that, it was a nice place to stay.
Ideal in every way for us. Location, amenities, comfort.The view is lovely, the grocery store is close. Filipa is just the most helpful and responsive host. No need to look any further for a home away from home in Lisboa.
