My friend and I stayed three nights in this sweet little apartment. Ruth was super helpful and let us check-in early as the apt was available. She provided extra linen for my friend to sleep on the sofa which was comfortable, the main bed however was quite hard. We found the apt clean and we loved the location which is easy walking distance to the waterfront, Barrio Alto, and many fabulous restaurants. Do try the restaurant Fumeiro de Santa Catarina that is one street back from the apt, delicious tapas style Portuguese dishes. We also found a cafe Go Natural close by that caters to vegans, gluten and dairy free diners, great for a simple healthy breakfast.

If you are staying here over the next couple of months be warned that there is building work taking place in the apt below and you will be woken at 8am weekdays by the builders.
