The apartment has exceeded our expectations.
The location is perfect and quite calm. There’s a bit noise from the bus and trash truck if you leave the windows open, but if you close the noise is almost none. It’s a 10min walk to the St. Apolónia station where you can get the metro to go to airport, city center, get the boat to the other side of the river or get a train to go anywhere in Portugal. By car, takes less than 15min to the airport and very easy to access both bridges as well. Parking is a problem in Lisbon, so here will always be hard to have a spot near the door. There’s a park area 2 min walk from the apartment. Be aware that starting form 9am, you must pay parking, so if you are new to Lisbon, check this in advance.
It’s a little hard to bring the luggage up to the apartment because it’s on the 2nd floor and the stairs are tight to walk but because it’s a renovated old building which is very normal in Lisbon, it’s cute and we didn’t mind. Just have that in consideration if you have huge luggage’s or can’t lift too much weight yourself.
For us wasn’t a concern having to get the key in another place, we took the opportunity to eat somewhere in the center, but I understand for some this could be an inconvenience, specially if you have a lot of luggage. But honestly it was ok for us, by metro it’s just 1 stop and 10min walk up to the apartment.
The apartment had everything we needed, it’s was spacious and we definitely recommend. Regarding the location, size and having two rooms, the price was great, cheaper than most similar or even just one room.
I will definitely book again if I need!
