The apartment is right in the center of the action. Many restaurants to choose from but the area is Is a little noisy during the night, especially on the weekend. The owner's father was kind enough to pick us up at the train station and take us to our accommodation. There are two exits from the local metro station (Baixa Chiado) and taking the correct one will save a lot of time. You're on the correct one if you take four escalators plus a set of stairs up to the street level. We would recommend.
