Cozy and quiet in the most elegant neighborhood of the city.

Lovely Lisbon
Sofía is a wonderful, friendly, and helpful host. Favorite things: homey little apartment in the heart of the city, yet you can close the windows and it is quiet for sleeping. Well stocked for the space and very functional for making our breakfasts and lunches. Would recommend and stay again.

Great little apt in the center of it all.
We stayed here for 6 nights in Sept 2024. Charming 1 bedroom unit on the ground floor in a building in the historic neighborhood, located just steps away from everything, surrounded by cafes, restaurants, Fado music, supermarkets, squares, bars, metro and train stations. The location couldn't be any better! From the moment of booking, communication with Sofia, the wonderful host, has been A+++++. She met us at the apartment, shown us great hospitality, gave us so many great tips and recommendations to do the things we're into, and apartment was stocked with goodies. The apartment is very clean and tidy. The living room has a futon sofa, coffee table, and TV. Efficient kitchen with full size fridge and washing machine, Nespresso coffeemaker, built-in table, and enough tableware for few people. The bedroom has a built-in closet and built-in wall shelving, great for unpacking clothes, with plenty of hangers and towels. The bed is quite firm and so comfortable, and even had memory-foam curved pillows. Also small but efficient bathroom with half-size tub & shower and good water pressure. We enjoyed having the windows open to hear the sounds of Lisbon's vibrant life, and closed the windows for 100% soundproofing. We would definitely stay here again. Obrigados!

It’s easy to give a five star rating when everything goes as planned, but I am happy to give a five star rating where there was an actual problem. The reason is that the communication and attentiveness of the problem was above and beyond. The responsiveness was incredible. The refrigerator failed, and the property owners were on site within an hour and purchased a new refrigerator within two hours. The location, cleanliness and responsiveness of the hosts were all superb. This property is incredibly well-maintained. I felt like I was treated as a family friend. I highly recommend this property.

Sofia and her 1 bedroom were a wonderful start to my Portugal trip. Sofia gave perfect directions by metro from the airport. She met me upon checkin, gave me fantastic recommendations for dinner and a fado night. This apartment has everything that is needed for a stay in Lisbon. It’s situated in a good spot in the city. Very safe at night and not too loud. Sofia is a wonderful host and had fruit and juice when I arrived. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location! Great landlady!
Although the apartment is small, Sofia, the landlady, provides everything one could need for a comfortable and fun stay in a wonderful city. She has thought of many little touches: extra towels, a bottle of juice and some biscuits, teas, spices, olive oil, and more. All these made it easier to stay in an apartment in Lisbon. But Sofia is also an ace at giving one recommendations for things to see, places to eat, places for day trips. The apartment is in the heart of the tourist part of Lisbon. One can walk (or take the Metro easily) to other parts of the city from there. After a day's exploring, we were always happy to come home to this peaceful little place. We recommend it highly!

Wonderful Stay!
This apartment is in the perfect location! It's right in the middle of the city and has easy access to the train station and all central locations for meeting. Plus Sofia is amazing! She greeted us personally and not only oriented us to the apartment but was able to provide recommendations on what to do in all neighborhoods of Lisbon and how to get there. One of the best experiences I've ever had and I would most definitely stay with her again!

Perfect base for exploring historic Lisbon!
We stayed in this lovely apartment for a week in February, choosing it for its amenities, other stellar reviews, and its proximity to the Chiado and Alfama neighborhoods. We were unexplectedly thrilled with the street itself. This is the first-floor flat of an old building on a pedestrian street, midway up one of the many hills in the city (we were going up and down stairs throughout our week there and laughed when our fitness tracker said we had climbed 20 floors). The apartment is perfect for two people, very small by American standards, but thoughtfully outfitted with everything one could need and all aspects (wifi, heat, plumbing, etc) worked perfectly. Sofia is a gem, and agreed to meet us at 7am on a Saturday—we had booked the evening before so we could come directly from the airport—and she had juice, water, and cookies waiting. Her notes and maps gave excellent information and we relied on her recommendations for neighborhoods, day trips, restaurants, groceries, and most importantly where to buy the best pastries. 4+ restaurants are steps away from the door, including the excellent Super Mario, a Fado bar, and an Argentinian retaurant where we enjoyed live Tango music. We are already planning our next trip!

The very best little apartment in Lisbon
Many things make this apartment perfect as a base to tour Lisbon. The first thing is Sofia - from the first email interaction to getting directions to information and help during my week’s visit, Sofia was there to assist. It was a pleasure to meet her and I recommend her apartment highly. The second is the apartment itself - has all the amenities for a week’s stay. The pots and pans are good quality, kettle, coffee maker, toaster etc were all of the highest quality. I have stayed in many apartments over the years where the kitchen set-up was truly pitiful. The third reason this apart,ent is perfect is the location- near everything, particularly public transit and a Fado bar, yet it is an oasis of peace and quiet.

Die Wohnung ist klein, aber fein, gemütlich und in einer sehr zentralen Lage!
Die Zeit für das Eincheck ist bei Sofia sehr flexibel. Wir sind bestimmt rund 23 Uhr am 25.12. erst in der Wohnung angekommen. Sofia und ihre Tochte warteten schon in der Wohnung. Vielen Dank für den freundlichen Empfang, auch für die nette Tips für Sightseeing und das liebvolle Kleingeschenk an meinem Sohn. Die Wohnung ist im Erdg. Sie ist etwas klein und eng auf den ersten Blick. Wir sind schnell daran gewohnt, und emfinden wir die Wohnung als ein gemütliches Urlaubsheim. Da unsere Familie gern auf harte Matratze schlafen, finden wir die Matratze des Doppelbetts für uns sehr zurecht angenehm ist. Die Bettdecke ist auch breit genug für zwei, und hat wahrscheinlich ein Maß von 200 x 220cm. Die Wohnung befindet sich in einer kleinen Gasse mit vielen kleine Restaurants, einem davon mit Fado. Wir sind zu Weihnachtszeit und Silvester da, und die Fenster sind stets zu. Daher ist die Wohnung für uns schon ruhig. Nur einmal hören wir was in dem Treppenhaus, als die Leute von oberem Geschoss untergekommen waren. Sehr selten hören wir was von Straßen. Allerdings der "Lärm" (eigentlich nicht so laut) hat uns gar nicht gestört, weil wir sowieso tagesüber unterwegs waren. Die Lage der Wohnung ist traumhaft. Wir haben unsere Aufenhalt in der Wohnung und in Lissabon sehr genossen. Die Wohnung ist aus unserer Sicht sehr empfehlenswert, und komme gerne wieder zurück.

Das Appartment war ein traumhafter Ausgangspunkt mitten in Lissabon
Das Apartment ist klein, aber fein und mit allem liebevoll ausgestattet, was man braucht! Sophia hat uns erwartet und gleich viele wertvolle Tipps für Sighseeing, Einkaufen, Fado und Essen gehen gegeben. Die Wohnung ist ebenerdig, mit kleinem Bad und Schlafzimmer zur Fußgängerstraße (Rua do Duque) raus in einem Altbau, super zentral gelegen. Über die Rolltreppe im Rossio-Bahnhof kann man die Höhe vom Rossio-Platz auch mit Rollkoffer gut überwinden. Außerdem gibt es den Elevador Santa Justa und auf der Terrasse nebenan auch noch einen kostenfreien neuen Aufzug, der in einem Souvenirladen unten rauskommt. Gleich am Largo do Carmo kann man gut essen, sitzen, Lissabon spüren und es gibt sogar einen Biosupermarkt. Wir waren sechs Nächte im Herzen von Lissabon und werden sicher wieder kommen. Es war traumhaft schön! Herzlichen Dank Sophia für Deine wertvollen Tipps und den freundlichen Empfang! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Barbara und Dieter
