Description The Watercolour Effect: Lisbon

Located in the Graça neighbourhood of Lisbon, this spot offers views across the Tagus River and Lisbon's National Pantheon. Just a four-minute walk from the nearest supermarket and Portuguese bakery, the balcony terrace makes an idyllic little spot to sit with your morning coffee and pastries overlooking the city's rooftops. However, it's worth noting that the kitchen is small, and its compact layout makes it difficult to cook more substantial meals. Conveniently, the bedrooms feature air conditioning, although we think the fourth bedroom (with a double sofa bed) is better suited to one guest rather than two.

Home truths:
*Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the fourth bedroom. This room is small, so we think it's better for one guest.
*Your host can provide a free cot if requested in advance.
*This home is on the second floor without a lift. It won't suit guests who struggle with stairs.
*Given the central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*You'll need to pick up the keys from the host's welcome centre.
*We think some areas could do with a refresh. In particular, the bathrooms are old, so expect an occasional odour from the shower drain. Check with your host if both shower trays will be in use for your stay.
