This is a really beautiful, clean apartment - traditional and lovingly decorated, yet with all the mod-cons you require. The lovely terrace catches the afternoon sun, and looking out over the rooftops, you really feel in the heart of Lisbon.
From looking at the map, I assumed we'd be using the Metro a lot (Santa Apalonia station is less than a 10-minute walk downhill), but we soon found we could cut through the side streets and reach the city centre in 20-odd minutes, discovering lovely cafes, markets and shops en route.
Ana was extremely helpful and flexible in advance of our arrival, offering tips on how best to reach the apartment and get around Lisbon. And she was there to greet us on checking in, to guide us around the property and share her expert knowledge. Thanks, Ana!
