Lisbon Guesthouse review: Latina Hostel

It is an appartment with 4 room of which 3 bigger ones (2-persons) have one shared bathroom. I stayed for a week in the smallest room with a private bathroom. Bathroom was very small but clean and sufficient. Kitchen was clean and well equipped. Sheets could have been a bit more representative (but were reasonably clean). You have to let the owner know when you will arrive (e-mail). She will send someone to let you in (Portugees speeking only) and give you the key. She is quite easily available via the e-mail and phone, responds quickly to your questions but you will not catch a glimpse of her. Be prepared to pay cash in advance and do not expect to get a proper bill.
Location was for me very good as it was at a convinient distance from the language school I attended (International House, very good by the way). Public transport (underground and busses) is generally very good in Lisboa so the real center of the city is easy to get to.
Generally ok, might use it next year although with all rooms booked it might get a bit crowded. I had luck to be alone.
