  : Jorge was a great host (he waited for us and he took the time to explain us in detail the must from Lisboa and also offered us a bottle of wine). The location was very good since we were located in the old area of the city next to the metro and cool looking restaurants and bars. The kitchen was clean and well equipped.
  : The place was not clean enough. We could feel the floor dirty when we were walking barefoot. The bathroom was all in black tile. However neither the tile of the bathroom nor the bathtubs havent been cleaned with cleaning products. You could feel a greasy layer in the tub and it wasnt pleasant to step on the little carpet as it was in a bad state as well.

  : The location is excellent, with a short downhill walk to Santa Apollonia train, metro & bus station and a taxi stand, and Feria de Ladra equally short walk uphill. The apartment has a lot of original character and has everything you need for even a longer stay. The host Jorge was very friendly and helpful.

  : Jorge's place is cute, well equipped and very well located. Jorge's amazing, we loved his indications and details he gave us.
  : It was very hot when we visited Lisbon and the house gets pretty hot too. But it was manageable at night with the fan and keeping the window a bit open

  : This flat is in a perfect neighborhood! Alfama is so desirable and youre so close to the city center that its easy to get around. Jorge was also very friendly and while I had a work meeting shortly after checking in, he was prepared to give us a run down of the city which I think would be helpful for guests new to town!
  : While in a lovely location, there were a few things undesirable about the place. The building is very old, yes, and the walls were literally crumbling and leaving dust on anything close to the walls. By the time we left the counters and the floor near the walls were all dusty. The water almost definitely has mold in it. It has a weird taste to it and it gave my throat a coated mold feeling - be sure to bring your own water for drinking! I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night one night and there were tiny little bugs all over the sink and bath tub. In the bathtub there is a foot shaped sticky thing on the side? Idk what it is but it looks moldy and gross. Also in the shower, theres no way to prop the shower head up so you just have to hold it to rinse yourself off. The whole place smelled a little moldy as well - not sure if it was just the water so the drains were permeating a scent but when you walk into the place theres an immediate smell. The kitchen sink doesnt drain well. There was me and a friend but there was only sheets on the bed and no sheets to put over the futon couch. Those were the main things!

  : Location was excellent. Jorge was a great host, spent lots of time telling us where we might want to go in Lisbon and readily available for any questions or concerns. The place was a great fit for a couple. Well equipped kitchen for our needs.
  : The bed was very firm.

  : The apartment was very well located and very big. For three people we had a lot of space on two floors. The apartment was well-equipped and its really well communicated with airport and all main attraction. You can feel real Lisbon experience just out of the door with picturesque narrow streets, great fish restaurants and fado events.
  : There is no aircon, and only one window in whole 2-floor apartment (bedroom is without window, so you cant keep the door closed because you will have no air, so privacy is limited). The apartment is in the lively part of the city, so when you want some air in the night you need to open the window and its loud 24/7 - restaurant, tourists, baggage wheels, garbage trucks, tourist electric carts, etc. The standard of the flat is quite outdated, so I think that is this price is too high for the quality you receive (basically you pay for the location)

  : The friendly and informative host, the comfortable bed and the location in the heart of Alfama near a main train station (St. Apolonia) and buses/metro/trams.
