We had a few issues and several of them I would have liked to know ahead of time. -Water on the kitchen floor upon arrival. David, the host, was informative and helpful and resolved the water issue fairly quickly. -early check in promised at 11:00am ( that we paid over 100 extra for), but then were not offered access until 2pm. -it could use some nice plush towels and not being able to flush toilet paper was a downside. -HOLY CRAP!!! 4th floor (really 5 b/c the first is really 0), no elevator -thank goodness that my husband and I ,who in our 60’s, are generally fit!! Had I read all reviews I would have known this…however, full disclosure would have been nice. -portable air conditioning-we were told we could not keep apartment cool/comfortable during the day ( had to be off during the day) so it took a lot of time to cool down a portion of the apartment.

Great location. Nice apartment. Friendly and helpful property owner/manager. Really not much to say on the negative side. The only things potential guests would need to consider is that you need to be somewhat in good physical shape as there are quite a few flights of stairs to get up to the apartment (but I hear that is quite normal in Lisbon) and vehicle access is limited but there is pay parking nearby where you can leave your car.

Amazing place to stay. There is everything you need. The appartment comes with everything, very well equiped. Don't hesitate to stop at Flat Cafe near by. The staff and owner are great people and the coffee and food is good. Be ready to climb the 75 steps to get to the roof top appartment. It keeps you in good shape. David was great to deal with and respond always very quickly with clear instructions. Thank you David!

Excellent Short Stay

We had a great stay at this property. The host David was excellent! Very helpful and his communication was amazing. The unit was clean and bright and suited our needs as a family of 6 for a short stay. Restaurants, shopping and water front were all very walkable. The only down side was the amount of stairs to climb to the unit and the air conditioning wasn’t that great but with a breeze at night, sleeping was comfortable. Would recommend!

Be prepared for a workout

Place is in a good location and restaurants and stores very close by. I had rid the reviews before I booked about having to walk up 4 floors of stars. I’m in pretty good shape and exercise but I was sweating when I made it to the top with luggage. I wish this place had an elevator and it would Be perfect. I wouldn’t suggest this place for handicapped people or out of shape or seniors. David was very helpful As well.

My Stay

Apartment was pleasant. I just think the communication with the owner could have been better. I would text him and he seemed aggravated. A few of his answers would end with exclamation marks. I had to contact VRBO a few times as our check in times was getting pretty close and I hadn’t heard anything from the owner but it worked out. Just like other reviews state “lots of stairs” four steep flights of stairs and before you even get to those stairs there are 127 steps from the street to his door. The apt has a pretty good breeze when the windows are opened but owner will still have you pay a daily air condition fee. We really didn’t need it. Our stay in Portugal was wonderful.

David, the host, was very helpful. Arranging transfers from the airport and providing useful hints and tips for our stay in Lisbon. Apartment was in a great location and very well equipped. You do need to be fit and healthy to stay here however as the four flights of stairs up to the apartment are very steep but the views from the apartment are worth the climb.

Worst place I have ever stayed

This is the worst apartment I have ever stayed from all my years of travels. Here are what I experienced with this place: 1. Stairs - there are 77 stairs after you entered the front door of the building to the apartment on the 4th floor. If you have luggage, you will need to walk up all these steps to the apartment with your luggage, then carry them back down after you check out. The steps are narrow and mostly without handrails. These stairs will stop you from going out for a breakfast run, or to get bottled water from the market just because you will have to haul everything up those steps. 2. Unreasonable fees - the host asked us to pay 5 euros per day for heat - I have never had to pay extra for heat anywhere. 3. Old and smelly bath towels - the bath and the facial towels seem to be used for many years. They are thin, old and smelly. I only stayed there for two days and didn't want to wash with those towels but had no choice. 4. Overall layout - there are boxes, junk and extra stuff throughout the apartment. The light switches are falling apart. The space between the end of the bed from the wall is so small that you can't walk through it to get to the other side of the bed. 5. Oder and bugs - the bathroom smells without the fan running and there are mosquitoes. The host also asked guest not to throw used toilet paper in the toilet. Will not recommend!

Lovely views

The apartment is spacious, and the views are lovely. We had some pretty hot weather, and found the one air conditioning unit not enough to cool down all the bedrooms. It wasn't properly vented and had a hose to hang out the window. The area is very nice, but loud at night on the weekends. We couldn't leave the windows open as a result. Also, the couch in the sitting area needs to be replaced. The apartment is really nice overall, but needs some upgrades for the cost.

Great location, but...

Pros- the pictures are accurate. The location was great for site seeing. Cons- We arrived the night of St. Anthony's celebration which started around 8 pm and lasted until 6 a.m. the following morning. And then the celebration started again each of the remaining nights we stayed there. The celebration took place right outside our windows. It was very loud and no one slept well. When I asked the owner if we could do anything he said to close the windows. We did, but without central ac, on the top floor, it was very warm. And still incredibly loud. In future, I think the owner needs to let people know about this when they book. If I had known, I would have found another place to stay. Another issue that I had was when I booked and payed the deposit, David messaged me to tell me that he hadn't set the "summer rates" yet and would need to charge an additional fee. I should have known at that point that something was wrong.Seems like that would have been a good time to tell me about the noise. The last issue I had was with check-in. He refused to give me the door code until we were standing outside the front door with all of our luggage. I was concerned all day that we would not be able to get into the place. With every other rental I have had, the information is disclosed usually days in advance.

He even checked in on us through out our trip and had recommendations for our next stop as well. Great host!! The apartment was in a great location to get everywhere quick. The beds were very comfy and the water pressure good, which is always a huge plus! Yes there are 4 flights of stairs up to the apartment but we knew that before hand and as long as you can walk Lisbon you will be fine! We loved the place and would stay again!

Wonderful stay in Lisbon

The apartment was just as described but seemed larger in person. Six people could stay here without too much of an issue. We did utilize the washer and dryer but you will still need to use the drying racks when the clothes come out of the dryer. We prepared our own breakfast every day and then ate lunch and dinner out. Having 2 bathrooms was definitely a plus for us. Communication with David was easy and he provided us with several tips of places to go as well as places to eat. He even provided us a ride to the airport on our last day. It is 5 flights of stairs to go up and there is no elevator but it is manageable. We are in our 60s but in good shape and we were able to make it work with luggage. I would highly recommend a stay here.
