Lisbon - Central Apartment in Historic District

André, the host, was excellent. He picked us up at the airport and waited an extra 1 1/2 hours while we stood in a very long passport line. He was full of information about Lisbon.The location of the apartment is also excellent, right near the center of the city with good access to attractions, transportation, restaurants, shops, etc. Just around a few corners from the street on a pedestrian alley in a quiet neighborhood at the base of the hill below the castle.The apartment is typically small but clean, well appointed and sufficient for a couple.Guests with mobility issues should know that you are required to climb a few short flights of stairs to access the apartment from the street, and it is on the first floor up a tight inside stair. André was there on check-in to help with luggage, however, and our 70 year old knees were up to the task.In all, a great choice for central Lisbon.

Location was great. Easyto get metro and historical sites.

André is a gracious host! Very comfortable bed.Extremely clean.Incredible location.

Andre was an excellent host. Close to lots of amenities and restaurants. Apartment was clean and Andre had lots of information available about the unit itself and Lisbon. Close to historic Tram 28 starting point and a 10 minute walk to the waterfront.

The host is outstanding, he picked us at the airport and gave us a very detailed explanation of the apartment and Lisbon. Way beyond the best host we ever experienced.

Andre is an excellent host and his small apartment was perfect for our four nights stay in Lisbon.

We had an amazing time staying at André’s unit in Lisbon. André is the perfect example of how every host should treat their guests—he picked us up at the airport, left us wine, delicious pastries, and a special Port that we absolutely loved. He was always available if we needed anything. The apartment is in a great location, perfectly situated between Lisbon’s main neighborhoods.There were occasionally some homeless people outside the building, but they never interacted with us or caused any issues. The unit also got a bit warm during the heatwave, but we expected that given the weather and lack of AC.Overall, it was a fantastic stay and a big part of why we loved Lisbon so much. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time!.. Host picked us up at the airport and provided a great, detailed overview of Lisbon for us that was very helpful. Andre also provided complimentary port and red wine - all delicious!

Great apartment, well located. Near métro, buses, trams. Very quiet at night.André was very helpful and picked us up at the airport.

Lisbon is a beautiful city and we had some memorable moments. Not the least of which were our culinary adventures. We had the best food of our entire trip in Lisbon, thanks in part to Andre’s recommendations. Andre was very helpful and his small apartment lived up to expectations: it was nicely decorated, well appointed and equipped. The problem was the location. The apartment was in an unsafe area of town. It was tucked in a quiet backstreet just off the main drag, which seemed very appealing to the less fortunate members of Lisbon’s society. When we first arrived, there were about 5 people strewn about the steps: one was totally prone - presumably asleep - the others were sitting on the steps in various stages of inebriation or intoxication from alcohol and/drugs. A M/F couple were sitting on a step exactly outside our front door and were still there when we returned from dinner later that evening. A couple of males were there the following night and tried to engage us in conversation while we struggled to unlock our door. Throughout the 1st two nights there was considerable noise outside, mostly loud shouting of a profane nature. This cleared on the 3rd and 4th nights, presumably because police attended a domestic disturbance and frightened the street people away. But the damage was done. We were apprehensive about returning to the apartment at any time of day but especially after dark. We witnessed two males urinating against the walls which created an unpleasant odor.

Short 4 day layover in Lisbon. Our host André was excellent. Picked us up at the train station and provided lots of useful information concerning Lisbon and the surrounding area. A very cute, little apartment, well maintained and with some delightful added treats. Thanks André for everything.

Appartement is spotless, as in photos. Small but big enough for 2. Comfy bed. Left extra bottle of wine and provided ample tourists details picked us up complimentary at airport upon arrival. Easy communication and accommodating. Central located and can do most of the visits by feet. The only negative was few couple junkies down the street shouting during the day (only). As a couple we did not feel threatened but we wouldn’t have felt comfortable with younger kids.

Our host Andre was very helpful in sharing with us what are the sites to see and how to get there with a very easy map to keep us oriented in Lisbon. He was attentive to our needs and even got in touch with us to be sure we were all right after a big rain storm not seen in Lisbon in a long time.

Andre was an incredible host. You are with walking distance of everything. I will be back!

Queen bed very comfortable for two. Blackout shutters for windows. Bathroom modern with host providing essentials (i.e., liquid soap, towel exchange due to 10 day stay, hair dryer, shampoo and conditioner). Full kitchen. Great location to historical attractions.

Great opportunity to live right in the middle of things for just a few days. Terrific hospitality from André, the host.

This is a wonderful, comfortable home well stocked with anything you might need. It is so easy to walk or tram anywhere in Lisbon. Grocery and restaurants within a few minutes walk. Andre is a fabulous host picking us up at the airport and providing a full day private tour. Everything rates an excellence! We would be so fortunate to stay here again.

Overall the interior of apartment was very clean and with all amenities we needed. Living area and kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. However this street does not have air conditioning and weather was 30 degrees hot. Location to tourist areas was awesome and easy to walk. Host Andre was very prompt professional with all his communication. Thank you, Bruce.

The apartment was in the perfect location, just outside of the heart of downtown Lisbon. The apartment was very clean, André was a great host and gave many great recommendations for things to do. Thanks André for a great stay in Lisbon!

Appartment is very nice, clean and well located. The owner is very welcoming and gentle. We appreciated our stay in Lisboa. Thanks a lot .
