Refúgio da Cidade

Appartamento spazioso (eravamo due famiglie per un totale di 7 persone), dotato di tutto ciò che occorre. Fresco, anche con aria condizionata, pulito e curato nei particolari. Comoda la presenza di due bagni. Addirittura un terrazzo con barbecue! La proprietaria Sara super disponibile per ogni esigenza, anche oltre le richieste riguardanti l’appartamento. Zona con presenza di supermercato e buon ristorante italiano sotto casa. Vicinissimo alla metro e a tre fermate dal centro.

Amazing landlord, amazing house.

This was a great apartment for the family. It has a court yard at the back. There is a beautiful Napal Restaurant across the road. There are plenty of shops nearby. The metro is very close. Secure Parking close by.

There was an issue with the Aircon. the host was very good and got a repair guy to look at it very quickly.

Very nice and spatious apartment! Multiple rooms and tables, nicely sized kitchen. There were a lot more amenities than we expected; soap, lots of kitchen supplies, cubes for in the dishwasher, etc. There is also an outside patio with a table, which was really nice for having dinner and playing games. It does have to be quiet at 11pm, but that is reasonable. The location is nice as well, as it is next to a metro station and about a 10 minutes walk from Lidl and a 30 minutes walk from the beginning of the main centre.

The showers didn't run through correctly, causing the water to rise quite high when showering (no flooding, just is inconvenient/unpleasant). Because it is a basement apartment, some of the rooms don't have windows. The kitchen, dining room and living room have plenty of light, though, so it did not really bother us. The neighbourhood did not necessarily feel unsafe, but there were quite some people living on the street a little down the road. Not a deal breaker in our opinion, but something to consider!

The apartment is fully equipped, with everything needed for a stay and some nice extras, like books and games. Beds are comfortable and the place is spotlessly clean, feels very cosy and is nicely decorated. Great central location, close to public transportation and in walking distance to sights, restaurants, and grocery stores. Great wifi in all rooms. The peaceful patio with barbecue is definitely a highlight. The hosts are super friendly, communication was quick and easy. With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the space is perfect for a group of 6.

Nothing to complain, we had a great time in Refúgio da Cidade and loved to come back to the place after a day of exploring Lisbon.

The apartment is next to the metro stop which makes transportation really easy. If you don't mind 20-30 mins of walking the closest sights are also reachable on foot. The beds are comfortable and the 2 bathrooms are making life way more comfortable also for a bigger group. The kitchen is fully equipped. The terrace is the highlight of the apartment.

Given that the apartment is a souterrain there are no windows in some of the rooms and can be a bit noisy because of the metro and the passing pedestrians but the level of noise is completely bearable.
