This is a fabulous flat in an old building a little way out of the main centre of Lisbon. Room one has character, with plaster detail on the ceiling and walls, plus full height French doors with full height shutters.
The rest of the flat is contemporary with an architect’s touch- polished concrete in the bathrooms and kitchen. The flat was spotless.
On the whole it worked well, but the traffic noise in Room One, which isn’t huge, was deafening for much of the time and it could have done with somewhere to put things down or to dry towels. In the end, the armchair was the only available horizontal surface.
There was an issue with the smaller bathroom. The architecht has designed a groovy walk in rainfall shower but water does spill over the edge of the tray making it unpleasant to use the loo next to it because the floor / mat was always wet.
There was a second bathroom which was much nicer. However it was locked out of use for most of our stay. We asked Flávio where it was but never really got a proper answer. In the end, we played detective and found a way to unlock it ourselves.
