This apartment is a gem. Since our family of three was traveling with my parents, we decided on this apartment so we could spend more time together while being close to the center of town. What we found was so much more than we expected. First of all, the reviews of the apartment being spotless are true - I'm a neat freak and was so pleased with the condition in which we received the apartment. Some commented on the simplicity of the decor, but to be honest, it was quite cozy and didn't detract from the experience at all. The bedrooms are spacious and the bathrooms are pristine. Kitchen is large by apartment standards and very functional. ***The location is excellent! I knew we would be close to town, but the street itself has a slew of amenities - just off the front door and headed to the main avenue is a great supermarket with express coffee counter (major score - could literally just step over in your pajamas if you wanted), followed by an ATM, wine shop/bar, an excellent breakfast place with all-day breakfast menu, and a 24-hr convenient shop after that - seriously, what more could one ask for. Avenida Liberdade is just a block away and the historic neighborhood of Chiado is about a leisurely 15-minute walk away - downhill! Last but not least, the hosts are so great. João was very responsive and Miguel, the one who met us, was so kind to help unload all our luggage and help my parents check into the apartment with our 7-year-old while my husband and I took off to return our rental car. This apartment and the management team really contributed to our amazing stay in Lisbon, so I highly recommend it.
