Our hosts Cidalia and Victor were at the apartment to meet us on our arrival. We were given a very warm welcome indeed and were allowed drop off our luggage mid-morning and returned after lunch to check-in after the apartment had been cleaned.
Cidalia went to great lengths to inform us of all the practical aspects of the immediate area (including a hand-drawn map which was very useful) and recommended good restaurants and the most interesting places to visit in Lisbon and beyond.
The location of the apartment is very practical as a five/ten minute walk will take you to the heart of central Lisbon.
The apartment itself was very spacious and clean with excellent bed-linen and towels provided. Everything practical that was required was supplied so that there was no need to purchase anything during our stay.
The only real drawback was that the noise-level from the street outside continued until at least 01.00am ; our solution was to sleep in the second bedroom further away from the street.
