Lisbon is a great city and very different to other European cities. Being able to stay in Simone's apartment made our trip go very smoothly. Simone was extremely helpful and has a unique - quaint - apartment that is uphill from the city centre. We found several pleasant walks into the centre, turning right out of the apartment, the best, especially on a hot day, was the tree shaded Avenida da Liberdade. Or, turning left and then right at the Italian Embassy, going downhill takes you to a great restaurant Cervejaria Ramiro … but expect to queue as it is very popular.
