Rita's cute little place is located smack dab in the center of the city in Baixa. You can expect a lot of action going on around you, and there's a lovely craft beer bar just outside. The kitchen is new and the appliances are very nice along with all the basics you need for cooking. The beds are really comfortable, and the shower water stays hot for ages, which is a godsend!
For remote workers, the wifi speed test showed .83 for upload, which I found wasn't sufficient enough to work from home. There is, however, a very modern coworking office just a five minute walk away called Heden Rossio which you can use through Croissant.
There isn't a washer in the apartment, and the nearest one is just down the hill less than 5 minutes. It's from 6.50 to 10 euro for a wash and 1-2 euro for a dry, so not cheap by any means.
Rita was beyond accommodating for anything I needed help with, and she solved whatever issues I had within minutes. The price point is extremely reasonable especially for such a prime location, and I think this is the perfect place to stay for a short visit.
