We were met by Carolina and she went to great lengths to familiarise us with the area. She was very friendly and welcomed us with some food and coffee.

There are many great places to eat and drink nearby, even though some of Bairra Alto wasn't to our taste - a bit busy at times, and a little too 'touristy'. Carolina did give us enough information to then suss out where we might prefer to go.

The apartment is very cute and perfect for hanging out and cooking small meals. But when there's so much to eat in Lisbon, why would you cook at home?
