We had such a wonderful stay at this flat in the heart of Lisboa. It was the perfect size for my husband, our 2 little girls and myself. With a 2 week stay, we needed the space. The interior is practically brand new, it's clean, modern and the best part was surely the view from the balcony. It's too small to sit out on, but we just pulled up chairs close to it or stood out. The hosts (Filipa and Sergio) were excellent; from the first time we contacted them until we checked out. They made everything easy and were very accommodating. They were also super responsive, which was helpful as we had lots of questions :) The neighborhood was bustling and noisy, but that is to be expected in the middle of Lisbon. The convenience out weighs the noise. There are lots of restaurants, shops and a grocery store that we frequented, all near by. We found something new every day in the neighborhood. We had "Yelped" a restaurant called "El Rei da Frango" and maps showed it was close to the apartment. About a week into our stay, I noticed that in fact it was right next door... and I mean right next door. ;-) We never got to eat there as it was small and packed each time we tried. We walked almost everywhere, or took the metro/tram to some of the farther places like Belem and Nations Park area. There is plenty to do and see in Rossio Square, Bairro Alto and Chiado... in large cities like this, it's just fun take in the sights, sip a drink at a cafe and people watch. This area is perfect for that. The spiral staircase leading up to the 3rd floor apartment is narrow and may not work well for anyone with leg injuries, but it was fine for us, even with the 2 little ones. They loved walking up and down, holding on the rails and our hands of course. Stairs are just part of Lisbon culture anyway. Overall, we would not hesitate to recommend this flat and the hosts. We had a great experience and are looking forward to coming back to it for our final few days in Portugal.
