We really enjoyed our stay at Rita's apartment. She was an excellent host, and spent time with us when we arrived making sure we had all we needed and giving us good advice about what to see and do in Lisbon. The apartment was very clean and well-equipped, comfortable with all we needed. It's very well-located, and a great base for exploring Lisbon, while still being very quiet. Rua de Rosa nearby has great little shops and restaurants to cater for all tastes. Note the steeps stairs up to the apartment, but you need to get used to climbing anyway in hilly Lisbon! A wonderful introduction to a beautiful city.
