Perfect location on a charming square with amazing restaurants nearby. It’s near transit, easy to get to from airport, and most areas of interest are walkable.
The view from all the windows are charming. It’s got a market nearby, a full kitchen and you can do your laundry.
Ana and Elena are very sweet and responsive by text and email. We were able to drop off luggage by noon.
They do tell you multiple times before booking you must be able to climb 6 floors. So if you are fit and pack light you’ll be fine. We got a good work out from the whole trip since Lisbon is a city of hills and stairs, so 6 flights is a drop in the ocean of steps you will take in a day. However if you have limited mobility or want to go back to your place multiple times a day to nap and drop off things you might not enjoy the climb.
Other tips: amazing food nearby:
Casa das Bifanas
Bastardo
DaPlata 52
Confiteria National
The square had a food market/ festival with amazing drinks and snacks for 11 days
To get Belem there is a bus from the square. It gets very crowded, so consider a taxi or very cheap Uber. Get to the Jeronimos monastery first before 10 am or line gets crazy. Even if you have a Lisbon card you have to exchange it for a ticket and won’t skip much of the line. Buy ticket from machines in the Archeological Museum and use the fast line on the left.
Most beautiful views: go to Castelo San Jorge before sunset. It’s less crowded and you can have a drink on the esplanade and watch the sunset and even spot the window of your air BNB
We loved our stay. Public transit is good in Lisbon but hardly worth it when we realized how inexpensive Uber is for 2 people
Thanks Ana and Elena!
