Colombo is a 30 minute walk. Parc Florestal Monsanto is also close

I The kitchen and living areas are very spacious and clean. The kitchen is moderately well equipped but sharper knives are needed for cooking. There is a TV but no remote to use it. There is air conditioning but the remote control was removed by the owner in February so there is no way to heat the living space. There are wall heaters in the rooms that do not function. I saw many times the cleaners put the sheets and towels through a mini-wash in the kitchen, which is not up to industry standards for hygiene.

Benfica is a lovely village, still Portuguese with very few expats.

Very nice person and the accommodation is peaceful and quiet ! I recommend !

I had the pleasure of staying at Sonia’s place for one month, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. Sonia is an exceptionally warm, welcoming, and attentive host who is always available to help and make sure her guests have the most comfortable stay possible.
The house and apartment are consistently clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a practical and stress-free daily life. The location is another major advantage: there is a bus stop right next to the property, and the train station is only a two-minute walk away, making it incredibly easy to travel anywhere in Lisbon and beyond.
The neighborhood is very safe, quiet, and pleasant. Within just a few minutes on foot, you can find everything you might need, including grocery stores, ATMs, bakeries, restaurants, and a gym.
As someone who is usually quite demanding when it comes to accommodation, I can honestly say that this stay was perfectly suited to my needs. On top of that, the price is extremely reasonable compared to the current rental market in Lisbon.
Based on my experience, it would be difficult to find a better combination of comfort, convenience, hospitality, and value for money in Lisbon. I highly recommend Sonia’s place to anyone looking for a pleasant and worry-free stay.

One of the highlights is the Mercado de Benfica, a traditional local market where you can discover fresh produce, seafood, and authentic Portuguese products while experiencing everyday life in the neighborhood.
For outdoor activities and relaxation, Parque Silva Porto is a lovely green space nearby. It's perfect for a walk, a morning run, or simply enjoying some quiet time away from the city's busy center.

Overall, the area around Benfica Station combines the charm of a residential neighborhood with excellent amenities, green spaces, shopping opportunities, and transport connections, making it an ideal location for both short and long stays in Lisbon.

All the supermarkets are great. My favourite restaurant is Estrela Brihante - highly recommended!

Sonia always answers any questions I may quickly and efficiently. The house is kept very clean and the staff are friendly. There is a train station and bus stop close by. The neighborhood is safe. It's a very nice area.

Excellent location very close to train station and to nearby parks in Monsanto. Great value and good house keeping. I will definitely recommend in the future.

The fountain off Benfica high street by the church was a great place.

The location is excellent. The apartment is in the attic and the ceiling is low. I hit my head several times. After a few hits I rearranged the desk and the cloths rack to fit my size.
The staff were very polite and kept the apartment neat.

My stay was fantastic. The room was spotlessly clean and incredibly peaceful. Sonia, the host, was exceptionally accommodating and ensured I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend!

Tudo muito bom e explicado, casa maravilhosa

Not so much comment

My stay at the property was near perfect. Location was great as it is super close to Benfica train station which is very practical for getting to Lisbon city centre as well as the surrounding areas.
Sonía was super helpful at all times and she made me feel very comfortable and welcomed. Even though the room is at the top floor of her home, there is lots of privacy that it's almost like a separate apartment.

Would definetly recommend staying here especially for anyone solo travelling in Lisbon.

Quiet suburb of Lisbon, most people just speak Portuguese but are super happy to help if you need it.

Lidl which is a 10 minute walk away

It is a quiet place to stay this guest house depends on your vacation purpose. As for me, after long beach surfing life, I took a full rest here.
I just wanna address some of the points, it is nearby the train station, however, the train is coming every 20min, so you have to calculate the commute time. You have the right to request laundry service based on their house rule, however, I found the host adds an additional excuse to do this. Thus, I recommend and make sure to communicate with her clearly. (ask for coins, and go to the laundry store by yourself or request them to do it in advance). I barely see the host or cleaner while staying here, they provide good cleaning service. Luckily I have no other guests while staying on my 3rd floor. Other than that, you can feel free to stay.

I usually went to supermarket across the train station most of time, the host will kindly provide all resources.

Near the apartment there is a typical Portuguese restaurant with very kind staff and excellent quality food. The place is called Ze Pinto.

Comfortable accommodation next to the train station, very nice to deal with Sonya, there were no problems during the stay.
