Helena’s associate, Sofia, was very helpful with check in and check out. She went above and beyond expectations, and we are very grateful to her!
The apartment was really lovely and the view was amazing. It is a climb up a hill to get there (many many stairs) but the elevator helped a LOT - if you have mobility issues this isn’t the spot for you, though.
We LOVED the breeze blowing through the windows at night and it was never too hot in the apartment if we kept the shutters closed during the day. It’s not quiet - neighbors and dogs and cats and a garbage truck can be heard, but it was all normal urban noise.
It was an excellent spot to explore Lisbon, especially the Alfama, Baixa, Chiado, Belem districts. Easy walking access to many things, tons of shops, cafes, restaurants, and to the metro bus to get you just about anyplace. Overall, a wonderful 5 days in Lisbon with 2 parents and 3 teenagers!
