This is a terrific apartment right in the center of Lisbon's tourist area, very close to the ocean, attractions, restaurants and shopping. It is a renovated space in an old building, and the apartment is a perfect mix of old (high ceilings, thick wooden floors and beams) and new (gorgeous modern kitchen and great AC). All furnishings were very comfortable, and the wifi is great.

A few things to note: it is a third-floor walkup (which translates to the 4th floor in the US), and the door locks to the apartment can be tricky to maneuver, so make sure you get a good lesson when you are checking in. There's construction next door, but the big windows in the apartment are soundproof and there was no work on the weekends.

Sammuel was a great host, providing detailed information before our arrival. We appreciated the bottle of white wine in the fridge!

We loved how centrally located this apartment was, and that it gave us a real feel of what it is like to live behind the beautiful wooden doors of Lisbon. Thanks Sammuel!
