Very nice place. Great view. Is in a safe neighborhood. The incline to the place is pretty challenging to walk up to, if you are not used to it. My solution to that was Uber .
If your going to Portugal for a vacation , you are likely doing ok for yourself , then dont cheap out, splurge a little , lol
Do your research about the location , a bit of planning will make your visit worthwhile ( says the person who never plans - still had a good time , lol)
