Vila Madre Deus I

sufficiently out of the way to be quiet, but adequately proximate to be convenient. Everything you need in here for a short stay , clean, safe, and Marce is a wonderful host.

Good apartment with everything needed inside. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Kind personal. Location not far away from the historic part.

Nice view. Well appointed rental. Comfortable and clean throughout. Modern. New washer/dryer. AC unit. Well planned accommodations.

Bathroom downstairs bedroom up. The espresso machine was not easy to use. A pod system would be easier and less mess. We had asked for early check in 7-8 am because we had an early flight and they had agreed in writing then didn’t realize they had messaged on WhatsApp the day before for an update . They wouldn’t answer or respond on our arrival day until nearly 10 am so we waited hours to be told we couldn’t get into the property until noon. When washing machine wouldn’t open to release our clothes they acted like I did something wrong. The owner had to come open the machine and there was a broken latch so no more laundry that trip.

I liked how peaceful the neighbourhood was, and it was not too far from the city centre. We mostly used ride share services as we had 2 young kids and it was very convenient. There was a bus stop right across the street so we had the assurance that public transport was still an option. Marce who came to greet us when we arrived late was so accommodating. She gave very practical tips and even went the extra mile to help us get milk as we arrived close to midnight 🥰 Paying the extra for late check in was worth it. She made sure we were well settled in before leaving and we were very grateful for her help. The place was well equipped though we did not do much cooking. The shower pressure was great!

The place got a little tight once the sofa bed is opened, but we managed ok. It was also a slight challenge having to make our kids walk gently because the building is mostly wood and there were tenants downstairs who came up to kindly tell us that they can hear everything. We hope we didn't make too much noise during our stay.

Excellent location within walking distance of supermarket, train station and downtown. We arrived late and we were greeted by our lovely hostess. She was very helpful. Bed was super comfortable!

Lisbon was fantastic. A fab place to stay, very comfortable bed, great balcony, area very safe, easy 15 walk to edge of town or 759 bus across the road straight in/out of town centre ((Navengate yellow cards from Metro makes it very cheap). Lidl only 10 mins walk. Our flight was delayed, but Luis met us and explained everything even tho it was after midnight. UBER taxis great and are very cheap everywhere.

Only 6 hangers for clothes, nowhere to put jackets, only 1 bedside table, nowhere to store any clothing, no mirror outside the downstairs bathroom, no microwave even though listed on Booking.com website.
