We LOVED this apartment. Ideal location, good view, communicative host, and exceptionally clean apt. The windows and shutters block all street noise (which is just cars, NOT loud bars like Barrio Alto) when closed so sleeping in front bedroom is quiet. The air conditioning worked perfectly (even in August heat) although we mainly just opened the windows to catch the lovely Lisbon breezes. Would recommend this apartment to anyone and would certainly stay here on a return trip to Lisbon.
