Ana was terrific, welcoming us into the apartment with an elaborate introduction of Lisbon and its sights and even organising the taxi for us when we were leaving. Besides being impeccably clean, the apartment has a fantastic rooftop terrace overlooking the clay-tile roofs with the river Tejo in the background. It's the perfect place for a quiet day for yourself, but equally ideal for a drink watching the sun go down at the end of a day spent discovering Lisbon. It's in a neighbourhood that quite untouched by tourism, so a short walk in any direction will reveal lovely surprises, whether it's a cocktail bar, a nice restaurant or a local greengrocer. A 10-minute walk will put you on a bus or tram towards the centre, but you might enjoy the 30-minute walk through the winding streets more. The main train station is about a 15-minute walk away to take you to Cascais or Sintra for the day. Highly recommended.
