Nice airy apartment with all you need - bed very comfy and apartment very clean and decorated nicely with a personal touch. Joanne was very accommodating with our arrival/departure times. Nearest metro is Cais de Sodre which is 25 minutes walk so get to know the bus/tram options if you are moving around the city a lot. There is a taxi rank nearby anyway anyway (2-3 minutes walk). Neighborhood safe but animated - people do live here at close quarters. Some good dining options nearby as well as a supermarket within 5 minutes walk. Loved the fact that Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga is within a short walking distance from apartment.
