This apartment is really very nice and a good value for the price. Ricky and Diana, the hosts managing the building are very friendly and responsive. The apartment is big! And all of the amenities are modern and well kept. The neighborhood is ok and Avenida da Liberdade is very close, so that is nice.
I subtracted a star for a situation that came up for me. I was apparently the first person to ever use the fireplace. After burning wood for several hours late at night, the apartment above me filled with smoke. Ricky and the Lisbon Fire Department came at 4am and inspected the building until 6am. They decided the chimney was not built correctly and we were safe to go back to sleep. Ricky and the owner offered me 2 days extra for free as a compensation for everything, but the 2 extra days were filled with construction noise from the chimney workers upstairs and people in and out of the apartment fixing things. And I was unable to use the fireplace for the duration of my stay (which was the main reason I booked!).
I really think my experience unique and the apartment is still a very good get. I would still recommend, but watch out for the fireplace! D:
