My spouse and I stayed in Maria's apartment October 14th - October 17th, 2021. From the outside, the building has the traditional beauty of an older, tiled Portuguese building, but the inside is bright and modern. I liked the eclectic decor. The bed was comfortable for me but not for my spouse. The balcony overlooking the square was a real treat, both day and night. We enjoyed people watching from up there.
The apartment is centrally located to many things within waking distance. There's a bus stop across the street, a tram goes by right out front, and you're a fairly short walk to the Rossio train station. It didn't bother us, but it is worth noting that it does get very loud at night Thursday - Saturday as there are bars and a club nearby. Crowds gather out front and there is a lot of music and noise. Again, it didn't bother us, but everyone is different.
The listing indicated soap would provided in the bathroom. However, the hand soap dish and dispenser were both empty. I didn't mention it to the host because it was off hours and we made do with the dish soap from the kitchen. Although this is a small amenity, I think it is a basic offering to have hand soap in the bathroom and shouldn't be missed, especially in light of COVID-19.
Overall, the apartment is really lovely and in a great location at a decent price.
