Tim T.

Tim’s apartment is immaculate and Valeria was so kind and helpful greeting us and making us feel at home for the duration of our stay. Tim was excellent with communicating leading into our stay and so sweet to arrange a welcome gift of fruit and wine for us. I was so taken by the apartment (exactly as pictured but photos don’t do it justice), the feeling of coming home to it and the amazing neighborhood, and I was genuinely sad to leave. So much love and respect for this place and gratitude to Tim & Valeria for making our stay possible. Would love to come back!

Very nice authentic patio. Great neighbors. Apartment with balcony. Quiet area.

In walking distance there is an excellent viewing platform where tourists are taken.

Apartment is very nice, with all wooden furnitures and nice decoration. Apartment is spotless, with everything you need from ironing board to umbrella. The cleaning lady Valeria is so friendly and helpful, she gave me all the tips for nice places to visit and eat. I enjoyed my time here everyday. Oh and if you are a dog person, there's a friendly dog hanging around, she is so adorable.

The first issue I found is if I want some privacy, I need to draw all the curtains which blocked all the sunlight, and at day time there was a construction going outside the apartment so it was a a bit noisy and there were people coming and going all the time. If I want to get changed or just feel a bit more "free", I need to draw all the curtains. This made me feel a bit concerned during my stay. However I'm sure when the construction is done the place would be so quiet and peaceful with fewer people walking outside.

Neighborhood
It's very touristy, with the famous tram 28 just at the corner. Sometimes it's too crowded on the tram and the experience was not very nice. However it is close to everything, big supermarket, nice restaurants, all walkable distance.

For restaurant, D'As beatas and RD's restaurant are such a nice restaurant, also Cafe Mortara has the best handmade pasta. For Portuguese restaurant just follow the guide the apartment gave ;)

I've stayed in countless long term apartments around the world, and Tim's place is one of the best. He has thought of everything and it really feels like a home.

Graca is a lovely neighborhood with a distinctly local feel. You'll have to walk up some seriously steep hills if you're coming from the center, but it is very, very worth it. The flat is a 2 min walk from the highest (and very happening) miradouro in Lisbon. There are multiple supermarkets, cafes, and a lovely plaza just down the street.

The flat itself has cleaning supplies, comfortable bed, a washer, dishwasher, excellent wifi, a coffee maker, and a TV with HDMI capabilities.

The only thing is that in the photos it looks like the backyard is private. It's not your own backyard, but it's shared by a few houses. It never posed an issue for me. All the neighbors are just lovely and there's an adorable dog that hangs around as well.

You won't regret staying here!

The wine shop Vino Vero around the corner (past the Spar and down the stairs) is always busy and they have excellent wine and vibes.

Cosy apartment in the neighbourhood of Graça. Spectacular view, well equipped kitchen, overall clean. The landlord is lovely and I’m thankful for this experience:)

Neighborhood
Graça is full of young people and very lively, full of nice restaurants and spectacular views.

Tim was quite hospitable, the first day a bottle of wine was waiting for us. Cleaning was done regularly. The apartment was in very good condition with everything you need.
