This home is just off Praça do Comércio, so it’s as central as you can get and the perfect pad for groups who want to see the sights. You're just four minutes away from the historic Lisbon Cathedral, which dates back to the 12th century, while the Lisboa Story Centre is a couple of minutes away in the opposite direction. You'll be spoilt for choice with the range of restaurants, bars and nightlife, on your doorstep and having an apartment within walking distance from several of the city's most famous landmarks is a definite advantage after a busy day exploring. Inside, you'll find a simple space that has lovely views over the street below, along with comfy furniture that invites you to put your feet up and relax. If you're feeling inspired to try out cooking some Portuguese cuisine for yourself, then the sleek kitchen is the place to do it – but if your plans only extend to opening some local wine and nibbling on olives before an evening out, then this home is equally great for that too.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living area
*The host doesn't provide any cooking ingredients, tea or coffee
*The surrounding area is very busy and full of tourists, so it can get quite loud
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair if required
