The apartment is in a great location. There are several local restaurants within a few minutes from the apartment that have fabulous food and are away from the tourist crowds. Felipe provided several helpful tips on where to go for authentic Portuguese restaurants along with practical information about grocers and pharmacies. There is a Metro station very close to the apartment which makes it easy to travel to the attractions in Lisbon that are out of the Chiado neighborhood.
We were also provided with basic supplies and some treats. This made us feel at home immediately without having to scramble out to the stores right after arriving from our journey to Lisbon.
The kitchen was well equipped for either short or long term rental. You can tell that a lot of thought went into preparing the entire apartment for a safe and pleasant stay.
Although it was not an issue for us, please note that being close to the center of the action also means there are crowds and some noise. It was not excessive, but if you are a light sleeper, it could be an issue.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this apartment.
