The apartment is on the top floor of a lovely refurbished building which means lots of sunlight from three different sides. From some windows, you have a view of Sao Jorge castle. The apartment is newly finished, and all the equipment is in good working order. The bedroom and bathroom are sufficiently large to move around and have ample hanging and storage space. The furniture is comfy, including the bed. The shutters are motorized and shut out light and noise. The apartment was very quiet. I worked remotely from the apartment during the evenings and internet worked perfectly.
Many of the apartments in the building are AirBnB's so you have the chance to meet other travelers coming and going.
The neighborhood may be called "transitional" or "gentrifying" or other words to that effect but I enjoyed the diversity and it is a very safe neighborhood with lots of new restaurants and services seemingly popping up all the time. There is a brand new Continente Bom Dia grocery store that opened a few minutes walk away that has everything you would need. A Padaria Portuguesa as well as other mom and pop pastelerias are across the street. You can easily walk to the downtown/tourist area in about 15 minutes or take the metro which is just around the corner.
I stayed in the apartment for over a month and would not hesitate to stay at this lovely apartment again.
