Downtown Classic by Homing

Let's start with the positives: * Excellent location right in the downtown core * Beds were clean and comfortable * Kitchen had a decent-sized fridge, and clothes washer * A generous amount of storage for such a small space * Fiber connection, with good download speeds * Nice shower (but no soap holder?!) Some things to be aware of: * A bit noisy at night, but about as expected (bring earplugs) * You must check-in elsewhere to get a physical key, which requires walking a ways and switching metro lines. We first went to the apartment with our suitcases, and waited at a coffee shop while one person went to get the key and come back. That took about an hour. * Only one physical key, so it requires coordination if people want to go different places * The eating area is very small (but you're probably eating out) Some negatives: * False advertising! The description said the apartment has air conditioning and a dish washer. There is definitely no dish washer. There are swamp coolers / fans in each room but no air conditioning and no way to actually cool down the apartment. It was 96F/36C during our visit and while it was cooler inside than outside, and it did cool off at night, the heat impacted our sleep. I complained, and was only offered a $25 discount for the inconvenience * The bathroom smelled like sewage. Strongly. It was unpleasant * The stopper in the bathroom sink was very difficult to open (required 10+ minutes with sharp knife)

El apartamento está súper bien ubicado, se puede caminar a varios puntos de interés en Lisboa. Por otro lado la propiedad está muy descuidada, el edificio tiene grietas importantes por todos lados y en general le hace falta limpieza. Las sábanas estaban manchadas y las fotos del anuncio están actualizadas.
