We had a great 3-week stay at Joel's. The location was perfect for us as we walked 'everywhere' in about 20 minutes (lots of hills and stairs, but that is part of the beauty of Lisbon) and had amazing access to transit. We appreciated the private and designated parking for our car also, very helpful staff at the building.
The apartment had just enough amenities for us to cook dinner at home when we wanted and was only a short walk to the great restaurants LIsbon offers (including Ramiro's, we highly recommend it!). Despite no a/c, we found the location to have amazing cross breezes and the fans provided were perfect to keep the cool air flowing for great night's of sleep. We also appreciated the dishwasher and laundry, made it an easy 3 weeks!
Martim Moniz is an up and coming neighbourhood and we loved the diversity of its people and its buildings. We could cross the square and hear Fado, hike up to Castelo Sao Jorge, or meander through Rossio to Duque, Principe Real, Barrio Alto and even our new favourite neighbourhood, Sao Bento. We felt perfectly safe at all hours of the day and night and never worried about a thing.
A great spot to live like a local, thanks Joel!
