Character old building located a few minutes walking distance to two metro stations and walkable distance to popular touristy neighbourhoods. Soft bed and spacious apartment with a well equipped kitchen. Tough for light sleepers as it’s an old building that isn’t soundproof at all so you can noticeably hear when others enter/leave the building or are walking around in the apartment above, which was a pain getting woken up at 3 and 6 am. Some nearby roads felt a little unsafe walking home at night but easy to avoid by choosing a different route back to the apartment.

The property was fine but the pictures on the web site were really very poor. Incredibly steep steps leading up to the front door. No instructions for the oven of washing machine. The iron needs replacing

Perfect Location
The location is great and super convenient for everything we wanted to see. The property met our needs. We didn't use the kitchen, as we really just came back to sleep. We did try out the little cafe down the road, and loved the local feel.

Lovely authentic apartment centrally located
We loved our stay here in an authentic Lisbon property. The street view, interior and locality gave you the feel of how locals lived but with modern amenities. Just a short walk downhill to historic centre. We really enjoyed Lisbon and our accomodation. Great communication from Paulo and Carla and thanks to them for their kind welcome pack and nice touches in the apartment. Highly recommended.

Authentic Lisbon Experience
Small older apartment in central district. Very well stocked with all you need but little is new. Bed very comfy but only accessible from one side. Tiny grocery 60 m away. Close to central area and Metro but up the hill a bit. Our host provided a welcome basket of nice wine, loaf of bread, jams and pates. We enjoyed our stay!

Lisbon Haven Near Most Everything
This is a wonderful apartment, fitting for the neighborhood, and so near most things you want to do in this magnificent city! About a five minute walk to the metro, which is convenient, extensive, cheap, and safe, but have to admit it’s about 12 minutes back (uphill). Very clean and has a fantastic kitchen with not only a gas stove but a dishwasher and laundry washer as well. Interesting barrio street with several good restaurants and small independent markets. Neighborhood is multicultural but seems very safe and everyone was super friendly. Is this place perfect? No, but for an inexpensive lodging in a genuine neighborhood with the locals it is truly wonderful. Now, let’s talk about the proprietor. From the very start, Carla was kind, responsive, and helpful in every way. She was the best part of our booking overall. So, book this jewel as your home base and go out and enjoy Lisboa!

Everything we could ask for
Perfect for us in every way. Location, very clean, cozy, everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Communication was top notch, from check in to any questions we had. Easy walk to town, shops and restaurants, as well as sights, public transportation and E28 tram. We would definitely recommend. Thank you so much Carla and Paulo, as well for the bread and wine gift basket.

Anniversary in Lisbon
Situated close to the city centre of Lisbon and the old city area of Alfama, walked to all locations without need for transport, A lovely welcome basket on arrival the accommodation was very clean and comfortable. Communication was fantastic and any questions were answered in a timely manner. Highly recommend this apartment for anyone wishing to explore Lisbon by foot but do expect to walk up and down the many hills. We had 3 days and saw a lot but will return again as so much more to explore. Thank you Carla

1st time in Lisbon
Carla was great with communication and the house is exactly as described. Beds were comfy and her basket of treats was very sweet. The apartment is a decent ascent uphill from the Rossio Metro station. Our only issue was not with Carla. Lisbon is a huge city. We were approached numerous times about purchasing hash and coke, saw a robbery & watched a coke deal go down. Some areas near the apartment were unsafe after dark.

The property is very down to earth and humble. One feels comfortable a typical Portuguese home with lots of good vibes. Clean, close to amenities and quiet. Thanks Carla for the goodies that you left on the table, it was a nice touch, you really care for your guest.
