Joao's apartment is located right in the center of Lisbon between Alfama and Baixa, within a walking distance to most of attractions. It is very close to the Rossio metro station and train station (if you plan to make a trip to Sintra). A supermarket is close by as well. Joao was very responsive in communications. He gave us very good tips for our stay. We visited two of the restaurants he recommended and liked the food (and the prices) very much. A slight inconvenience is that a car can't drive up to the door. You have to take two flights of stairs down from the closest street as the building is on a side of a hill. This wasn't a problem as Joao met us and helped with our luggage when we arrived. The apartment is spacious and is right as described. We had a very pleasant stay.
