I highly recommend this apartment and would stay there again if I come back to Lisbon. Best part about it is the view from the upper balcony! It’s even more stunning than the photos. And the owners left us a bottle of local vinho verde to enjoy! We also appreciated the binder of local information and several guidebooks in the cabinet. The building has a reliable elevator, great Wi-Fi, and good air-con (it was very hot while we were in town).
Check In was super easy, and we had the entire garage area to ourselves (except for one evening there was one other car parked in there). The place was extremely clean, comfortable, and located just 2 blocks from the pedestrian boulevard and arch. It’s also close to the border of the Alfama neighborhood.
A couple of things to improve upon would be the pillows on the beds - my husband and I both found them to be overly mushy and difficult to sleep on. And I wish they had hair conditioner in addition to shampoo, but I understand that many European accommodations do not have conditioner. There were 4 adults staying in the apartment, and only 1 full bath to share (plus half bath downstairs), which made getting ready a longer progress. These were very minor points however, and I would definitely stay at Second House again!
