It’s in a great location - which is at the heart of Bairro Alto, which is packed with bars, restaurants, cafes and bakeries. It is around 10-12 minutes’ walk from the metro station, uphill via cobblestoned pavements.
The apartment was on the ground floor of an old building (with others living upstairs) in a residential street which was safe to walk even late at night. Everything was basic, without any decoration and old/worn out furniture - which would be fine except it’s wifi and tv didn’t work. We checked in on Saturday at 6ish in the evening (self check-in with key access via a lockbox). The internet connection disappeared after working for around 15 minutes only. We rebooted the router twice but to no avail. Then, we called the number provided (which was a hotline instead of a mobile) for multiple times but no one answered and then we were directed to voice mail. The issue with the non-functioning internet was reported to the host via messaging and next day in the afternoon, their quality control / property management team came and fixed the issue. Internet connection was back on when we returned to the apartment late in the evening but it went disappeared and remained no connection the next day (Day 3) to the fourth day when we checked out.
It no doubt created great inconvenience during our stay.
