We were surprised by the central location - we knew it was central, but we didn't know the city so we didn't know just how central - and the great view of the square and the hillside and the Sao Jorge Castle. The apartment is new and stylish, it has all the equipment we needed, and it was clean and spacious. There's a Chinese shop downstairs and they have everything you need on a daily basis. There's a good bakery nearby, also. We not not mind staying in the same place another time.
