Cristina was very helpful when we arrived. It is a very spacious apartment. An excellent fish, fruit and vegetable market nearby if you fancy using the good sized kitchen. The Calouste Gulbenkian Museum is within walking distance and is normally open on Mondays when quite a lot of other museums are shut. The apartment is in a quite quiet area at night even with the main bedroom windows and rear terrace door left open. Three of us stayed at the apartment for a week but it would also be ideal for four guests. Easy access to the very centre of Lisbon within a couple of stops on the metro. Downhill from Picoas metro when coming to the apartment and downhill to Marques de Pombal when off sightseeing will save your energy when the weather is hot. Lisbon taxi's are good value too. So much to see and do in Lisbon and I recommend a visit by a short train journey to Sintra and another to Cascais by the sea. Cascais has interesting formal gardens with peacocks etc and quite a bit of culture too. Casa das Historias and the permanent exhibition paintings of Paula Rego in a fantastic architectural setting is not be missed.
