Wonderfully spacious, quiet but convenient location!
Despite being uphill, the apartment is easy to reach on foot (less than a ten minute walk from multiple metro stations and from the lower town, plus there are two public elevators that can bring you up the hill — although one seems to be less reliable) and very close to services (grocery store & multiple restaurants & the best Pasteis de Natas pastry shop in town!). It is along a busy foot-traffic route to the Sao Jorge castle, but that traffic drops off at night — so very quiet location, but very safe nonetheless.
In terms of the apartment itself, great two bedroom / two bathroom spot. Great for families, with all the essentials (full kitchen + washer machine… no dryer, so have to use the drying rack) plus a few books and simple toys for kids. The view over the lower town and towards the bay is priceless!
Overall, a quiet, safe, spacious and comfortable spot. Mafalda was very accommodating — would definitely recommend / stay again!
