We had a fantastic time staying at A Portuguesa II. We were welcomed with traditional custard tarts and scented candles, given excellent advice about places to eat and things to do in Lisbon. The flat is lovely - an old building with rickety floors, which has been done up really smartly, with great furniture and nice design features. It was clean, smelled lovely, had all we needed for cooking and was a fantastic base for exploring Lisbon. The charming funicular train runs down one side of the house (I ran out onto the balcony to watch it every time!), and at night the area transforms with small bars and restaurants opening up and down the road. Our favourite restaurant nearby was Estrela da Bica (one block down) with amazing food, including veggie options! We had a great time and we would definitely return.
