This apartment offers an exciting view of the city. Its large and modernly decorated. The kitchen is adequatly stocked. The windows are typical Portuguese and are without screens or barriers. This made us a bit nervous traveling with young children being on the 19th floor, but they were old enough we could warn them. In the local area on foot we found a butcher, several mini marts, and and a bar. We felt safe in the area. The apartment was clean but we did find a very strong smell coming from the main bathroom, and (apparently fairly normal in Portugal especially high rise buildings) there was an issue with tripping the power if you used too many appliances this happened at least 10 times in two days. So that is something to be aware of. Over all we loved our stay and really enjoyed being in an authentic apartment.
