First of all, the view is everything the pictures show. It may be even better in person, actually, as it is almost shocking how beautiful it is. One of the bedrooms and the patio have the same great view. The patio, however, is very small and you can barely fit out there. But truly, the view itself is worth it all.
When you arrive, there is a bottle of Portuguese wine, goat cheese, and crackers, which was much appreciated after a long travel day! They also left a booklet with several helpful tips of things to do, places to see, and where to eat. We went to one of their dinner suggestions (10-15 minute Uber ride) for the best seafood and they were right- it was fantastic. There are only two restaurants we found directly across from the apartment, but you can walk a couple of blocks down the road to find some more. The apartment itself is equipped with everything you need, including a cell phone to use while you’re out and about exploring, which was incredibly useful as I did not have an international plan on my phone so during the day I used the guest phone often to search for places and use the GPS. The only item we (3 girls) found lacking from the apartment was a full length mirror to get ready, or at least another mirror outside of the bathroom. At least the mirror in the bathroom was very long so a couple of people could be in there getting ready at the same time. The hosts responsiveness was also great. They have a staff that is always quick to reply to any questions. I would definitely recommend staying here, especially if having a view is important to you as you will not find a better one in Lisbon!
