LONDON -- Nintendo nerds, stop what you're doing. We have just found your ideal holiday destination.
One Super Mario fan has made the ultimate tribute to the Mushroom Kingdom by creating a Super Mario-themed Airbnb listing.
The Airbnb in Lisbon, Portugal, is full of nods to the beloved video game, from projectile flowers, toadstools and even a bedspread featuring Mario's iconic outfit.

The flat -- which also contains a Star Wars-themed room -- is home to 32-year-old computer game programmer André Farinha, who describes himself on his profile as "a major nerd."
The room isn't just visually appealing to Mario nerds, it's also equipped with 2 Nintendo 3DS devices -- complete with The Legend of Zelda -- along with a Wii U with 20 games.
Farinha spent a whopping 10,000 euros getting the room into its current state, but -- thankfully it will only set you back £30 ($38) per night.
