This spacious apartment has balconies with a neat view. You can see out as far as the April 25th Bridge across the Tagus. We thought it was wonderfully appointed and enjoyed the very updated bathrooms and showers with great water pressure.
The location is walkable to many of the sites. (My daughter and I made it to Lisbon Cathedral (Se’) and the Castel Sao Jorges on foot.) But be advised that it is extremely hilly everywhere in Bairro Alto and can be slightly difficult getting to and from the apartment if you aren’t in excellent shape. The apartment is upstairs, so getting a lot of luggage up there could be harder if you aren’t prepared for it. My 80 year old mother was with us, so it was challenging for her. But if you are young or just used to walking a lot (which Europeans seem to be), then it’s great. We would highly recommend it for the beauty and comfort of the apartment.
Joana was extremely responsive at all times in her communications with us. In fact, she was so dependable that I reached out to her for advice on getting between Sintra and Lagos, even though we had other AirBnB hosts in those places but they were not nearly as responsive as Joana. I really appreciated her taking time to help us when we had already left her place.
