We stayed ten days in Miguels apartment situated on the “Largo Martim Moniz”.
The apartment was very well furnitured. Everything you need is there.
To welcome us, the owner had put some fruit, a bottle of portuguese wine and last but not least delicious “pasteis” in the flat.
Miguel was even so kind to fetch us from the airport, notwithstanding the fact that the plane had a delay of more than 2 hours and a half. At 2.30 at night he stood there with a big smile waiting for us in the airport!
After our holiday he brougt us back to the airport: an excellent service!
The apartment is located in a modern building, which dates from 2010. From there, you have a beautiful view on the place “Largo Martim Moniz”, the castle of Lisbon (Castelo Saõ Jorge) and two other viewpoints (Miradouro da Santa Graça and the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte).
Place “Largo Martim Moniz” is situated in the very centre of Lisbon (5 to 10 minutes walk from the Rossio (the “grand place” of Lisbon), the Chiado (shopping), the Bairro Alto (cosy restaurants), Alfama (ancient centre of Lisbon with narrow streets) and Mouraria (former Moorish quarter), the Baixa and the beautiful Praça de Commercio and the river Tagus.
In “Largo Martim Moniz” (where we stayed), you can take the metro, the tram and also a taxi. In the Rossiostation (5 minutes walk), you can take the train to the beautiful town of Sintra with its fairy-talelike palaces and landscape. From another railroadstation in the very neighbourhood (Cais do Sodré), you can take the train to the well-known and appealing seasidetowns Estoril and Cascais.
Miguel, for your service, your apartment and the location, we give you 9 points on a scale of ten!
Thank you! Muito obrigado!
