This is a very comfortable apartment in a quiet area. We flew from Boston and spent 3 days walking up and down the streets of Lisbon. The bus or tram is not far away for getting down town. The small stores nearby have basics for food and living. We rented a car and went off driving all over the country for 12 days before returning for 2 more nights at the apartment. It was quite convenient and Jose has been a very helpful host. We recommend his apartment to anyone. We love Lisbon and Portugal!
