Room smells so bad, like a mold (i think it was the bed). we couldn't but heater on because the smell was going stronger and we had to sleep all our clothes on. I've had a really bad allergy and headache after being in that room, so we had to leave that room after one night. we would not have stayed there, but it was new years eve and every other place was full booked.
I called the lady who showed us the room and told the problem, she was nice and polite, so i really hope they will do something about it.
Never had this bad experience on hotel, hostel or apartment.
I perceived the check-in Lady as unfriendly.
During my first night I got awake because of ants walking on my pillow and arm.

There were several things left out of the property description. The property was under construction. The construction started on the floor below at 7 or 8 am on the weekend-not very considerate. It was not explained to my two neighbors who shared the entrance from the outside hallway to the shared kitchenette that they should not lock their neighbor out of the apartment. I was locked out the first night and the third night of my stay and I had to deal with two different people which should have been done by the property manager. Both of these clients smoked in the apartment. The second one left his door open for a couple of days with his room in a mess. I have no idea where he was or if anyone found him!
The bedroom and bathroom part of my section was clean and I did not use the "shared" or "common" kitchen which was not. The property manager was late to give me the key when I arrived. Then she came running down the street while I was leaving trying to have me pay the city lodging tax. Considering it cost me hundreds of dollars to stay here, I think I might have been good for the 8 euros tax. I left it on the table as I was walking out the door for the last time.
It was not mentioned in the advertising that this "apartment" was on the upper floors with no elevator and a very narrow staircase that did not have a great deal of light.
All in all, I don't think I will be staying here again.
Discovery Apartment Estrela was a lovely place to stay in Lisbon. We arrived late and arranged with the owner transfer from the airport for only €15. We were met at the apartment by Sandra, who made us feel very welcome and was most helpful about answering questions about the area.
The apartment was very comfortable and clean. It was great to have use of a kitchen that was well equipped with a cooker with hobs, oven, pod express maker, good sized fridge, microwave and kitchen utensils.
The apartment is situated close to a tram/bus stop and the Metro is about a 20 minute walk (or a tram ride).
Nearby there are some very good cheap restaurants and excellent mid-price ones (check on trip advisor).
The 28E tram goes from outside Basiica da Estrela sometimes is very busy going into town, if so take the tram in the opposite direction and go to the end of the line to catch one back in. You’ll get a seat this way and be able to do the journey in comfort. There is also a cemetery at the terminus stop that’s worth a visit both for itself and the amazing view of the river and bridge.
