We arrived on an early flight to Lisbon and Elsa kindly allowed us to check in early. We were welcomed at the apartment by Elsa who gave us loads of really useful information about Lisbon and the area immediately surrounding the apartment. The apartment is absolutely perfect. Very spacious, well equipped and beautifully furnished. The area surrounding is not touristy but there are plenty of local bars, shops and restaurants. We were three women travelling together and we never felt at all worried walking around the area. We walked everywhere from the apartment as it is so well located.
