The apartment is 20min from downtown. It is a nice apartment with a small out door space. Always nice to have that option.
There are several restaurants, bakeries, and 2 supermarkets within a 3min walk. Enjoyed the neighborhood, which also hosts one of the main sunset lookout points. As far as the hills go, get ready it's part of the charm and workout of Lisboa. You can grad a Tuk Tuk at the lookout point or call an Uber for a ride down the hill. I found the uber to be cheaper.
There is a great Oak Berry shop where you can get Acai bowls and shakes just at the corner of the apartment. Yummy! The host communicated quickly and there was easy access to the apartment. Enjoy your trip!
