We arrived early Sunday, tired, worried that their would be no shops (not even the ubiquitous Lisbon cake and coffee shops!) open - but there is a supermarket seemingly open all hours in the same building - number 45 too ;-) Talking about street numbers, the taxi from the airport took a long time to find the place. Typical Lisbon I think - 45 is NOT next to 44 (which is a cake shop 2 or 3 blocks away where we had lunch a couple of times). We could have got the metro which has an exit just by the front door, but my wife suffers from MS so her energy is carefully rationed! Which is why we booked this flat in the first place - it is just one block from the university where we were working for the week. Lucky us! The flat turned out to be perfect, not large but everything designed to make optimal use of the available space - small kitchen, large bathroom, large bedroom/livingroom with a psychological partition (3 sliding slats) between them. I especially appreciate having a coffee machine for my 5 espressos in the morning (not really exaggerating here...) Really ideal for a couple, maybe also for a couple with young children - the sofa converts into an extra double bed but there's not really the privacy for 2 couples! Our hosts Inês and José were very friendly and helpful - and the grapes and wine we found when we arrived were much appreciated.
