If you're young, or young at heart, this is definitely the place to stay. Locates half way up Rua da Bica de Duarte, the apartment is in an ideal place to explore Lisbon, both by day and night. A number of bars line the street, and there are plenty of Resteraunts in the area. Bairro Alto is a short walk up the hill, plenty of good Resteraunts and bars, the hub of Lisbon nightlife. walk down the hill to the Time out Market for a large variety of eateries.
the area is well served by public transport, either up the hill you can find the 28 Tram and the Baixa Chiado Metro stop, down the hill to the river and the Cais de Sodre railway station, which has a Metro and boat services across the river. Great location for exploring.
The apartment itself is clean, and has everything you need for a short stay, and Nuno provided a bottle of wine and some snacks for our arrival. The view of the bustling street below from the balcony is great, always music somewhere, and close the windows you'd hardly know you were on a busy street. Nuno kept in touch for the whole time we were there, very good host.
One word of advice, if you have any mobility problems, this might not be the place for you as located on a steep hill, having said that we're not the youngest kids in town, but we had no problems with the climb or descent.
Highly recommended!!
