The location of this apartment is unbeatable. It is at the very beginning of Bairo Alto on one of the quieter streets, but also next to a lovely square in Chaido where you can get some of the best pastel de natas, fresh bread and take-away coffees within minutes. You are also very close to the river and the train station to reach the beaches, as well as being a pleasant stroll away from Alfama or Santos in the other direction. We stayed for a month and found it a very liveable space for two people whilst working from home. Having a lunch break on the terrace was one of our favourite things to do. Mario is an attentive host who gave us lots of information on the place and even made sure there was some food there as we arrived fairly late. A perfect base to explore from as well as live in for longer.
