This apartment is top notch, the space and comfort levels are brilliant. Amazing views across the city. It's equipped with everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The hot water in the kitchen tap turns to the right, contrary to the colour coding - this evaded us for a few days! The D.I.Y. Designed pallet furniture is impressive and quirky. The artwork and photos on the walls are lovely. It really is a fantastic apartment. The downstairs neighbours were quite loud at times but if you can tune that out you'll have nothing to worry about. As for the location, it's situated mere minutes from the old town of Alfama, in the shadow of Castelo de Sao Jorge. In the other direction only a couple of minutes to the main shopping and restaurant/bar area of Baixa Pombolina & Chiado. Trains, Metros and Buses are all close by. As is the supermarket which is around the corner. On the ground floor you'll find a lovely bar called Lisboa Vadia which is also run by the host. Juliette and Silvio who work in the bar were a fountain of knowledge and ideas when it came to things to do in Lisbon. So pleasant! They've a great selection of drinks and nibbles. Don't let the maps fool you into thinking you will have to walk great distances to get from A-B, 15 minutes in either direction will cover a lot of ground. Bring shoes with good grip, the beautiful pavements can be a little slippy! We were two guests staying in this apartment and had more than enough space. It would happily accommodate 4 people - definitely enough room for everyone. Not so suited to young children as there are many sets of stairs and steep climbs on the street. Every Portuguese person and local that we met were more than accommodating and super friendly. We would go back in a heartbeat. Couldn't recommend this apartment highly enough. Tere is a fascinating and incredibly warm host - an amazing character to meet!
