Guest Reviews
- Maria (10/5): - Lokalizacja i wyposażenie
- Mads Damkjær (4/5): - Lejligheden havde en lugt at skimmelsvamp, som de prøvede at “dække” med duftfriskere i skabe og stikkontakter. Derudover var der kun to ruller toiletpapir til fire mennesker som havde fem overnatninger, samt flere af deres ophængte ting såsom bruser, toiletpapirsholder og håndklædeholder hængte halvvejs ude af væggen og var på vej ned. Beliggenheden var fin, dog var væggene ikke særlig godt isoleret så man kunne nemt høre naboer samt folk udenfor.

- SILVIA (10/5): Tre giorni a Lisbona sfruttati al meglio anche grazie alla posizione - corrispondenza tra descrizione e ciò che ho trovato, disponibilità dell'Host, posizione, vista
- Alison (8/5): Nice comfortable apartment in a very convenient location - Nice location, comfy beds, had everything we needed An extra bathroom would have been great with five of us staying there
- Juan (9/5): Maravillosa estancia - Fantástica la ubicación y el equipamiento, el propietario muy amable y solicito en todo momento
- María (10/5): -
- Batet Ferrer (5/5): - Molt bona ubicació Quan vam arribar hi havia una gotera al menjador.
Les pujes la persiana de les finestres del menjador et veu tothom qui passi pel carrer
- Jarkko (8/5): - Location was perfect. Some mold in the air-source heat pump. That was not the best suprise.
- Paloma (9/5): Recomendado por las 10 componentes del grupo - Superó nuestras expectativas, éramos 10 chicas y estuvimos muy cómodas con las instalaciones y el espacio, que nos permitió hacer vida fuera y dentro del alojamiento. La ubicación es absolutamente inmejorable. Las toallas no nos parecieron limpias del todo, es lo único.
- Sabrina (9/5): Consigliato - Appartamento in posizione ottima, comodo per spostarsi e raggiungere facilmente le principali zone della città. Perfetto per grandi gruppi grazie agli spazi ben organizzati e confortevoli.
Pulizia impeccabile e ambienti curati nei dettagli. Wi-Fi veloce e stabile, ideale anche per utilizzo continuo. Tutti i servizi della casa funzionano perfettamente, rendendo il soggiorno pratico e senza problemi.
Esperienza complessivamente eccellente. Durante il soggiorno siamo rimasti senza acqua calda, probabilmente perché l’impianto non è adeguato al numero di persone. Consiglierei alla struttura di aumentare la capacità o la potenza per evitare questo tipo di inconvenienti, soprattutto per gruppi numerosi.
Inoltre, i tempi di risposta del personale potrebbero essere più rapidi: una comunicazione più veloce renderebbe l’esperienza ancora migliore.
- Marieva (8/5): - Good location!! The WiFi was very low and no Netflix on the TV.☹️
- Paula (8/5): -
- Csilla (10/5): -
- Francisca (9/5): - La ubicación, la amplitud del apartamento, limpieza. No había cafetera y tostadora
- Robin (9/5): Agréable - Le logement est très bien situé et très agréable. Des odeurs de canalisations dans les salles de bains malgré la vmc

- Cialente (8/5): Posizione perfetta - Posizione, letti, cucina con lavatrice e lavastoviglie top Muffa nell'aria condizionata, doccia fredda se la fanno piu di due persone
- Susana (9/5): - Limpieza, amplitud del apartamento Ruido de la calle los fines de semana. Aunque no pasan coches hay algunos bares
- Patricia (9/5): Estupenda estancia en pleno corazón de Lisboa en un piso nuevo y amplio. - Todo estupendo. Había una gotera pero nos avisaron previamente del hueco en el techo.
- Beata (5/5): - Bardzo dobra lokalizacja Brudno , grzyb w łazience.Właściciel zażyczył 50 euro za wcześniejsze zakwaterowanie. 2 rolki papieru toaletowego na 7 dni pobytu,0 worków na śmieci.
- Jennifer Eileen (10/5): - Muy bien ubicado y muy accesibles para dejar el equipaje, muy limpio y recomendable.
- Lisa (7/5): - The interior of the apartment Lots of stairs to climb, far from shops and restaurants. The location is very bad because neither Uber nor taxis reach the place; you have to carry your luggage down many stairs. After two people shower with hot water, the third person has to wait for the water to heat up because it gets cold.
- Armando (9/5): Precioso apartamento en Barrio de misericordia. - El departamento estaba impecable, es muy amplio, tiene bastantes closets y la zona de family room es ideal para disfrutar en familia. Las vistas a la bahía son fantásticas y la calle de Bica de Duarte Belo es una postal. Muy lindo apartamento. disfrutamos mucho de los restaurantes en la zona, Mafalda fue una increíble anfitriona, sus recomendaciones fueron geniales, especialmente el restaurante Santa Bica. Podrían poner la cama doble en la habitación principal, habían puesto camas separadas. Pero todo muy bien y muy cómodo el apartamento.
- Marie (9/5): - Appartement agréable et très bien situé.
Check-in et check-out faciles.
Hôte disponible pendant le séjour.
- Yvonne (9/5): - Location was perfect. Apartment had everything we needed in good order. Host was great. Happy with everything.
- Fabio (10/5): Férias em Lisboa - Do conforto do apartamento e do atendimento dado por Mafalda ! A localização fica prejudicada no momento por conta da suspensão do uso do elevador da Bica e a TV era importante que fosse uma Smartv !
- Lydelle (9/5): - Apartment clean and good size for group of Friends. We had a small problem on arrival but the customer service team were quick at resolving. Good communication.
- lorraine (9/5): Amazing time, place is beautiful and comfortable - Location was great. Space is gorg and worked well for 4 adults. Having a kitchen was amazing No kettle for tea (we used a pot). Could have been a bit cleaner and at least one more roll of toilet paper would have been great. We had to buy some from the mercado

- Nika (10/5): Amazing apartment, good location, amazing owner! - The location is AMAZING!!!!! It could not be better. Everything is very nice and the gost is super kind. We got lost finding the apartment because Google maps for some reason don't lead you correctly to the apartment so we face timed the owner late in the evening and she helped us. /
- Gregory (10/5): Great stay on a great location - Wonderful location and met our needs as a large apartment for a bigger group
- Katy (5/5): Not as described. - Location. Note, it is not accessible by car or transit. Property was not as described. Nothing like pictures. Bathroom moldy. Small appliances dirty. Needs a good clean. Customer support was not accessible. Took a long time to respond.
- James (10/5): Lovely apartment in an excellent location. - Key pads worked really well with a large group of people. N/A
- Marie-Anne (9/5): -
- Adam (8/5): -
- Robyn (7/5): Apartment is comfortable but the location is not! - Clean and comfortable apartment. Bed was too firm. Property street and nearby streets are not suitable for Families with young children, seniors, elderly or people with physical disabilities. The street has many steep stairs to climb up and down including surrounding streets. There are 10 bars in the street that are open till 1am. The noise from the young drunk people makes it hard to sleep even with double glazed windows.
- Julie Melissa (7/5): Une expérience pas appropriée pour notre profil de voyageurs - La localisation est excellente pour celles et ceux qui veulent profiter du nightlife. La personne responsable (Mafalda) a été d’une bonne aide pour nous donner des indications claires et utiles. L’arrivée et le départ ont été quelque peu chaotiques étant donné que l’endroit n’est pas accessible en voiture. Les endroits les plus proches pour faire le (dé)chargement nécessitent la montée et la descente de nombreux escaliers; moins indiqués pour les jeunes enfants ou personnes moins en forme, surtout quand il faut porter les (nombreux) bagages.
Egalement, l’endroit n’était pas propre; beaucoup de poussières sur les meubles, les planchers laissaient à désirer et il y avait des taches de moisissures dans la douche. Les draps et serviettes auraient aussi besoin d’être rafraîchis. De plus, je trouve qu’il est un peu ordinaire de ne pas laisser un minimum de produits ménagers (sacs de poubelle, papiers hygiéniques, etc.) pour que nous puissions maintenir l’appartement dans un bon état, particulièrement pour les clients qui voyagent d’outre-mer. Ce n’est pas super de devoir acheter des sacs de poubelle quand nous restons seulement quelques jours. Je peux comprendre pour quelques semaines/ mois, mais quelques jours, il faudrait faire la part des choses.

- rosana (10/5): Lisboa en familia - La ubicación y diseño del apartamento son excelentes. Por ponerle algo negativo diría que los sofás son un poco incómodos cuando tienes que dormir más de tres noches.

- Guray (10/5): -
- Mccarthy (10/5): Loved this apartment would recommend to anyone travelling to Lisbon with a group of friends - Loved everything about the property was in a great location and was very spacious for our big group. Enough bathroom space and room for everywhere and loved the big common space where we could all sit. Nothing!
- Ross (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tabassum (6/5): Wasn’t the best experience - The property is located in a safe a quiet enough area with cozy bars, mini mart, and view points near by. The apartment is super safe with double security entrance. It was clean when we entered. And it’s fit for two couples or a really small group but I probably wouldn’t recommend for 6 people. When we reached out to the accommodation owner about checking in early because all of the guests were arriving from different parts of the world we were told it probably could be accommodated or at the least that we could drop our luggage inside while house keeping completed their tasks but we were baited till the last minute and charged for early check in because we were left with no other choice. We weren’t directed well about the best way of entry to get to the room as the apartment is located down a steep hill so we all carried our luggage down a lot of steps to find the place.
The apartment was not set up with soap, shampoo, dish soap, laundry detergent or anything, everything we used in the apartment was bought by us. Even toilet paper! A lot of fixtures were broken or coming loose which was a huge safety risk. The towel rod fell over me when I went to hang it which was not the best experience. The dining table has a loose leg that was barely holding on. The bathroom is barely ventilated so you best believe that if you’re staying with more than 3 guests the apartment will smell damp or of toilet in general. We stayed for five days and were only offered 1 towel each guest for the whole stay. For the first time in the country it felt like a super unwelcoming experience.
I think the apartments only appeal is the restaurants and sights surrounding it but the communication with the host and the facilities promised did not live Upto our expectations. I would advise looking for something else at this price point.
- Huyen (9/5): Perfect for big groups - Very spacious and cozy Apartments in the heart of Lisboa
Very friendly and helpful staff You can hear street noises
- Maher (8/5): Nice location but needs serious attention to detail. - Location was good Apartment needs to be freshened up.
Mattress was dreadful and pillows were awful. Over used and not hygienic.
Towels need to be replaced.
It would be good if a few washing tablets and dishwasher tablets - not just 1 - were left as courtesy. New rail for hanging wet clothes- not one that is so cheap it keep collapsing…
- Alessandro (7/5): Good - House location and air conditioning. Property was very responsive and helpful Just one bathroom for 6 people, sofa bed was uncomfortable
- K (8/5): Very good -
- Tom (8/5): Excellent I would recommend and will be staying there again. - Perfect location. Spacious, clean and comfortable. 1 door was broken which led to 1 of the group being locked in a bedroom. This was dealt with perfectly by Mafalda though.
- Krajčírová (10/5): Exceptional - Nice apartment in the city center even for a big group of people (9).
- Michail (8/5): Very good -
- Chalu-angella (9/5): Good location for those able to walk. - Spacious, excellent location. Sebastiao commumicated well with us and quick to fix the problem. Bathroom sinks drain slowly, the hallway bathroom stinks. Problem with the door key and kitchen drain was clogged.
- Aleksandar (8/5): Comfortable stay for few days - The location is really good, close to the city center and on an iconic spot in the city. It was quiet and comfortable. Really easy entry to the building and apartment. There was no coffee machine. The bathroom looks like needs some refreshing
- Dominika (10/5): Exceptional - perfect location, helpful staff
- Karen (8/5): Very good -

- Vered (6/5): Pleasant - Great location Cleaning, facilities, communication with host..
- Bridie (9/5): Superb - the apartment was in a great location, walking distance from metro stations and trams run directly outside the apartment. all the rooms were great and clean.
- Mustafa (8/5): Very good -
- Costas (6/5): Good...i expected better! - Location was near to the center, Bed was comfortable , Wifi was good! Noice from the near bars, Bathroom ventilation didn't work, for 4 people one toilet was not enough! The apartment wasn't the same like the photos!

Had a washing machine
Very good location with lots of eateries around (have to be healthy with the slopes and stairs though) Very run down from the photos
Had a flooding bathroom
Super noisy toilet extractor
Lights not working in the kitchen and wires exposed
Very small dirty balcony next to air conditioning units
In a pedestrian area with very limited taxi access (beware if you have luggage)

- Nicola (10/5): Exceptional -
- Barry (10/5): It was amazing. Everything was perfect. - The hosts made it so easy for us to check in. The apartment had everything we needed in it. Nothing
- Arran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mg (10/5): Exceptional - We really loved our stay here. The apartment is exactly as pictured on the website. Clean and modern. Good size rooms, large kitchen and lounge. Even though the apartment is right on a busy tourist attraction with the yellow tram , due to double glazing when the windows were closed, we could not hear anything from outside. It has all the amenities in the kitchen. GREAT communication from the host, I can not thank him enough. He was so helpful when we had couple of issues with the electricity/fuse. He was so quick and efficient in his replies. I highly recommend a stay here especially for a big group. Clean towels and beddings. Central location. Most of tourist attractions are within walking distance.
Couple of tips: we bought shampoo/shower gel/handwash/toilet paper (There were small samples available at the property). There are 30 steps to get to the 3rd floor apartment from the ground floor. Most taxis find it hard to get to the place so you need to walk to the main road to get a taxi which is about 2 minutes walk. The apartment is located on a steep road with multiple steps to get to the main road. ( we knew all of these before we booked the apartment as it clearly says in it's description). Highly recommend a stay here if you can manage the stairs.
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- Kashif (10/5): 10/10 stay at a very good property in the perfect location. I will be booking this property again next summer! - Perfectly located property, with all the amenities necessary, bedrooms and lounge and kitchen were perfectly clean beds were comfortable and the best feature was the AC in every room - as well as the balcony and views - perfect apartment for a big group looking to explore Lisbon. The bathrooms were dated and werent as clean as i’d liked - they were not dirty, and were of minimum cleanliness but felt the bathrooms need a deep clean so its squeaky clean.
- Sam (9/5): The location is excellent, there are bars and restaurants on the street which are value for money. I would stay again👍🏼 - Very clean, spacious and had everything you need for a city break!
- Faltas (3/5): Great location if that’s your primary criteria but overall not impressed with the unit. - The location was excellent however the fact that it is only accessible by foot or by taxi made it inconvenient to get in and out The photos of the property appear to be taken when the property was first renovated which was probably over 10 years ago. The property has significantly deteriorated since then. And they also use pictures of other units in the building which make it appear bigger than it is.
But the part which was most disappointing was that
A. They only provide small samples of soap and body wash that last for the first day or two. You are expected to go purchase your own after that.
B. There is mold and mildew in the bathroom.

Fantastic location and fabulous if no issues with walking/fitness/ but certainly something to be aware of!
