Spain/Portugal/Gibraltar - Rental appartments in Lisbon

I have recently booked an appartment for my parents in Lisbon through Lisbonstay (www.lisbonstay.pt)

They loved the city and liked very much the appartment :

+:
Very centrally located
Quite cheap
Charming decoration
Perfectly clean
Easy to check-in (the landlord was present for giving the keys at the convinced time)
No noise

-:
Not possible to pay directly on the Internet site (but via bank transfer or cash). I sent a cheque in euros but the bank ask for fees for the operation:confused:

Thanks for posting this. Very good information.

Yes, that's always the problem with bank transfers or "foreign" checks (even from countries in the Euro currency zone) ... The best is sites that accept credit cards (some say up front that they will add n% for the use of a credit card) or use Paypal.
