The apartment is in a quite residential area in Graca. The building is fairly new. The pictures on the airbnb are accurate. It was about 15-20 minutes walk to the Palca do Comercio and the center. The view is wonderful. It is about 10 minute walk from Alfama where there are many nice small restaurants serving local Portuguese dishes. I had a car and used the apartment as a base. I highly recommend you visit Sintra and Cascais which are only about 1 hour drive. I also recommend you visit and eat the world famous Pastel de Belem.
