Gordeys place is good and central located to explore the city. Bus and Tram stations are all nearby and you can also walk to the city center or Bairro Alto if you don’t mind some steep walks. The apartment is very small with a nice shower, a little sitting corner and a small cooking area. All you need for a short stay. However, the mattress is horrible - we had a very bad sleep and a lot of pain in neck and back. If you have already problems with your back you should not stay there. Also because of no windows if you come there after a long day the apartment smells not nice. We needed to have the doors open long to let air circulate. If you stay short and only for sleep it might be a cheap place to go for you. Not a place to stay in the room for some self made dinner or so. And still for that the price is quite high.
