Nice, more "authentic" Portuguese top-floor apartment in an older house. Mostly renovated and modernised with adequate appliances, leaving occasional traces of old structures like a few low door frames and wooden doors. Rooms are a combination of high-ceiling structures like in the main bedroom and living room, and low-ceiling like in the kitchen. Steep stairs leading to the apartment; the host was however very friendly and carried our luggage up.
Nice neighbourhood and felt very safe. Good location to explore the city centre and coastline towards north. At least two trams and a bus passing by the house, and further stops down the road with additional connections. Cais do sodre train station relatively close, from where you can travel to Belem and Cascais (recommended!).
The neighbours in the house were very quiet. Even though the street is small and not so busy, you do hear the road traffic as well as airplanes (the Lisbon airport is situated close to the city and airplanes fly directly over the city centre). There is also a kindergarden in the backyard of the neighbouring house.
The hosts were extremely friendly, helpful and communicative on our queries throughout our stay.
