The location of the apartment is really great! The apartment is small, but comfortable for two people, especially if you plan to be out and about in the city most of the time. If you are driving the location is a bit tricky and the street is easier to walk up than it is for driving. We parked a block away, which was not a problem. However, just be aware that you will be walking up and down a pretty sloped street and two stories of stairs. For us it was no problem, and we loved being near Avenida da Liberdade and central to so many sights.
