This is a truly Portugeuse experience and it felt very bohemian. The apartment was very old but was clean and had everything we needed. The location couldn’t have been better, with a bird’s eye view of the famous Tram 28, that goes up and down the hill all day.
If you’re staying there on a weekend, bring ear plugs because you will hear the party outside. Mind you, it was very cool staying in that location.
Also, our cab driver really didn’t know where to drop us off and we had one very large suitcase. You have to walk a bit and we ended up walking straight up a very steep hill with steps. So, not sure if there is a close spot where you can be dropped at, but traveling lighter would be a good idea if you are staying here.
