This is a beautiful apartment that's full of character and in a great location in Lisbon. The neighborhood is really wonderful - not as busy as the Baixa/Barrio Alto/etc. but a relatively quick walk to those areas in Lisbon. We could have taken the tram to visit the sites and restaurants in these parts of Lisbon, but the city is very walkable. As other reviews have noted, there isn't an elevator in the building. But if you are OK with 4 flights of stairs (or 5 if you are also renting the upper level of the apartment), this apartment is a find! Also - there are lots of great restaurants close by - we went to the Italian restaurant in the building and would definitely recommend that if you want something convenient. The food was great and the staff is lovely. And finally - the host communication for this Sao Bento flat was excellent - replies were always prompt and extremely helpful. I wish we could have stayed in this apartment longer, and will absolutely rebook if it's available on a future visit.
