PRO's:
- Huge flat! Stayed for four night's as a family of three, and loved the spaciousness of the flat. Lots of room to spread out.
- Amazing location, in Baixa a short walk from Chiado, Alfama, the waterfront. The flat is on the fifth floor and bedrooms face a more quiet side street.
- Great amenities for families: Lift, washer/dryer, complimentary mobile phone, etc.
CON's:
- The balcony was more of a ledge. We didn't use it.
- Generally the unit was quite clean, but the couches in the living area had some pretty bad stains and could use a good clean/replacing. Also some of the floorboards were broken and taped down.
- We had a very frustrating check-in experience regarding the crib we'd requested. We had arranged for a crib months in advance (paid), and also sent a reminder a week prior to our stay and were guaranteed all was in good order. We had a 18:00 arrival and the crib was not in the flat. The check-in host couldn't give us an update on ETA or status of the crib, and our toddler was exhausted after a long day of travel. Around 20:30 a different host/rep arrived with a crib, but did not include a mattress or sheets. Finally around 21:15 they returned with a mattress. We ended up stripping the sheets off one of the beds and wrapping around the mattress.
