Vila Garden Guesthouse

It was very conveniently located. My room was clean but my mattress looked like there were some dust and hair underneath the bedsheet. I’m not sure if it was prepped on a rush, but everything else was nice and clean!

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment with kitchen. Everything was good. We had a comfortable stay. The kitchen is a little old but very usable. There is only air conditioning inside the two bedrooms so keep that in mind if you want to utilize the bed in the living area. Bathroom is clean and updated condition. Beds are comfortable. All in all a good stay.

The place was really nice, clean, and close to the Metro. The front desk people were super helpful. The garden out back was a great place to hang. I'd totally stay there again if I'm ever in Lisbon.

Excellent stay. As is mentioned on the listing, you will need to carry your luggage up at least one flight of stairs to reception. We ended up on the top (fourth) floor, and had to carry our bags there too. Beyond that, everything was great. We were in a larger unit with four people and there were two A/C units, the bathroom was large, and it was nice to have a kitchen area too. Staff were very friendly, the garden is nice, and there are a ton of great restaurants in the area. Convenient to the airport and city center. We would not hestitate to stay here again.

Really loved the ambience here, being on vacation it meant a lot. Staff were beyond helpful even to handling our luggage. Glad we picked here 😀.

I stayed here two consecutive weekends. Both times, the staff was very friendly and the courtyard is very nice if you plan to hang out at the guest house, or eat meals there. The restaurant options for dinner are not many right outside the guest house, but I really like the Portugalia across the street, so that's where I ate (steak, Portugalia style). I highly recommend it. And don't skip the dessert: the chocolate mousse is phenomenal. The metro is very near, so you can get anywhere really quickly. There are lots of coffee shops right outside the guest house for breakfast and quick meals. I gave it 3 stars because the first time I was upgraded to an apartment, which sounded nice, but it was a fifth floor walk-up, it felt cheaply built, and it was poorly furnished (no chairs or surfaces to put things on in the bedroom beyond the night tables, no tvs in the bedrooms, no plugs near the nightables). And the sole tv in the hallway did not work. I was told it would be fixed but it was not. The next weekend I stayed in a room and it was much nicer. I was allowed to get into the room early, which was great. Like I said, the staff is very friendly. I wanted to open the window, however, and it was stuck. Again, I was told it would be fixed but it never was. I like this area, but some people may not. It may be too edgy for some people. I always felt safe, though.

The stairs to the top are no joke! The unit did get really warm on hot days, especially because of the sunlight at the top. Wi-fi connection needs improvement.

Staff was very helpful. Nice outdoor space to relax.

The property was average. Staff was excellent. The area is not great.

Great location. Cute apartment that had everything we needed. Clean. Helpful and friendly reception for check-in.

Clean and modern property close to subway line. The room was comfortable and well spacious enough for our needs. The staff is very pleasant and helpful. While conveniently located, including for a quick Uber ride to the airport, the area may not be Lisbon’s best, particularly at night. There are several good restaurants roughly 1km down the street, but few nearby. Rooms on the street side will be exposed to traffic noise, particularly from ambulances which are frequently rushing to a nearby hospital. Overall perfectly suitable for a nice, short tour of Lisbon.

I wouldn’t say it’s in the nicest possible area but we only slept there so an uber to the door going out and coming back worked fine for us. Comfortable, functional , clean and quiet room on the garden side. Good staff. No lifts so if your bags are heavy and you’re struggling a bit. Be ready.

The staff was very nice and helful. The apartment was nice. It is a lot of stairs with no elevator.

Great stay in a not so great neighborhood.

The guest house is located in a good location, near the metro, and within a couple of miles of important destinations. The only problem is that you have to climb multiple hills to get from place to place, so metro is most convenient. The facility did not have an elevator, so taking our two suitcases to the second floor was something we had not anticipated. The staff helped taking the suitcases from the first to the second floor. Otherwise, the stay was great! expected.

Lovely clean hotel. Staff were very helpful. Cleaned every day. Big comfortable bed. No lift and all rooms upstairs. Quite noisy as walls very thin and on main road. Out of Lisbon centre in more rundown area. Transport/metro close by.

Great stay in no so great neighborhood.

Everyone was very friendly an accommodating. Clean and well situated

Pros The room was clean and updated. Small fridge and desk in the room. Stuff super friendly. Reasonably priced. Loved the outdoor space. You have access to common kitchen and large fridge:freezer. Close to two subway stops. Close to grocery store. Con’s: no elevator (request 2 floor), you can hear subway passing through, not much fast food options within walking distance, no access to outside area or common kitchen 12:30am-8:30am, strong laundry/cleaners used by cleaning staff.

Very clean, modern & friendly
