Catarina checked up on us several times prior to arrival as well as during our stay to see if we needed anything. The apartment is beautifully appointed and comfortable, and we found ourselves wanting to just "hang out" on the front deck and stare in awe at the knockout view of the city and the Tagus river. She provided a detailed house manual as well as restaurant and shopping recommendations. The flatscreen TV was great for watching the Rio Olympics. I especially enjoyed the early morning chirping of birds in the botanical garden behind the building.
