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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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

The apartment is comfortable and fully equipped for staying and cooking in but restaurant’s abound nearby. Old Lisbon - can walk to important sights.The old stone road is steep but there is view of the river from the little step out balcony.

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.

As this was our third stay in Carla's apartment we can confidently recommend it to anyone wishing to stay in the heart of Lisbon. The apartment is very clean, well maintained and fully equipped for a short or longer stay. The location is within easy walking distance of restaurants, metro lines, buses and rail station. The neighbourhood is lively and friendly with a number of small local restaurants and shops. Carla is always helpful and treats guests with a generous welcome back including wine and fresh bread etc. Elaine and Neil (Scotland)

Our apartment was close to Rossio Square and train station. Hosts were amazing. Responsive. Friendly. It was fun and interesting to stay in a neighborhood and use local markets and eateries. It can be a little loud and it is an uphill walk from tourist areas.

The apartment is charming - "old Portuguese" with modern amenities. Clear, prompt communication with super helpful hosts. Extra touches - lovely bottle of wine, delicious bread, pates/cheese jams left for us. Great info booklet in apartment pointing us to excellent mini-mart 2 mins away. The apartment is excellently located between Rossio and Martim Moniz (short walks). We ate locally every night - I mean a few minutes from the apartment. We used 2 traditional Portuguese cafe/restaurants (under £30 for 2 meals and litre of wine!) and then the superb Solar 31 where we ate twice (exceptional quality - about £60 but so worth it). If we return to Lisbon will definitely book this apartment again.

Perfectly situated in the older Baixa neighborhood downtown and close to attractions and public transport you can see the waterfront when you step outside the door or balcony and just look down the street. Good and very good restaurants right on the street and at the end of the street don't miss Mae's Kitchen! Carla & Paolo accommodated us multiple times and were very responsive. We left Lisbon with fond memories. Note: this apt is not for those that have problems walking up and down steep hills. Otherwise, it's great exercise!

We loved our stay! This was our first time in Lisbon and my friend and I really enjoyed the location - quiet neighborhood, but close to all the historical sites, restaurants and nightlife. The apartment was cozy, and had all the amenities. I reached out to Carla twice with simple questions - once before our stay and once during our stay and she was quick to respond. A nice surprise to find fresh bread, wine and goodies on the table when we arrived. Thank you!

Simple, sweet, and perfect! Very clean and well equipped apartment. The location could not be any better! You are right in the center of the historical district. The area always felt extremely safe. The host left us a welcome basket of fresh bread, two bottles of wine, and an assortment of jams and spreads. It was absolutely lovely! The host was alway very friendly, and easily accessible. We never had a single problem during our 10 day stay. My two children and I were sad to leave Lisbon. I recommend this listing. I give it 5 stars! It was a wonderful trip for us.

Not big by USA standard but certainly adequate. After the first day I got use to the size. Loved the location and character of the neighborhood with the mixed ethnicities. Would have loved a capsule coffee maker as most apartments have but a good cup of joe was close by. Over all I would stay there again.

The overall experience was difficult due to not knowing how to use European appliances such as washing machine- no instructions- or the stove, we were not able to turn it on. Maybe another European could One of the owners came the 2 nd nite to turn on the TV for us. And asked why we had to use the washing machine on our first nite? Directions and instructions were so limited it frustrated us, that we did never called about the stove, it was not worth the effort. We had read all the reviews for this property and were excited about the stay and the owners. Our experience did not match up at all with the reviews, but this could cultural. We will not return

My husband and I came to stay here for our honeymoon and it was so perfect! The location is unbeatable for exploring Lisbon. The neighbourhood doesn’t feel too touristy and is mostly occupied by locals. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants, holes in the wall that are visited by locals. The apartment itself is perfect! It has everything you need and we were greeted with delicious bread, spreads and wine! We also rented a scooter and Carla let us know where to park near the apartment! We cannot wait to come back!
