Beautiful apartment on the ground floor, with two large bedrooms. The garden and patio space at the rear, for the exclusive use of this apartment, is a wonderful place to have morning coffee or an evening drink before going to a fado restaurant. It was all spotlessly clean, and the host kindly provided welcome drinks and pastries for us. The kitchen is well equipped, and there were various stockroom items for us to use (although the food is Lisbon was so good that we didn’t use the kitchen!). Excellent shower with powerful flow, and lots of hot water.
Information about sights and attractions is available in folders on the apartment bookcases. If there are any questions that those leaflets don’t answer, the host will help - he was kind enough to provide us with restaurant recommendations and information about taxis for our very early departure to the airport.
The apartment is well located. There is a small cafe a few metres away and for morning coffee, and it’s a 10minute walk (only a little uphill) to a tram stop for the famous 28 yellow tram that takes you to see all the sights of Lisbon. It is a little longer to walk to Santa Apolonia station and the waterfront, but down a very steep hill - a taxi is recommended if you can arriving there and want to come to the flat! There was no traffic or other noise at all, despite the flat being at ground level.
The host couldn’t be friendlier or more helpful, and I would recommend this apartment to anybody visiting Lisbon.
