The apartment is picture perfect. It's very spacious with extremely high decorative ceilings and beautiful light fixtures. It's a throw back to the past but with modern amenities (including an elevator to take your luggage up to floor 1 (second floor in the States)). The apartment is clean, modern and centrally located. It's a 25 minute walk to downtown Lisbon (Praca do Comercio). On the way you can find restaurants, bars and the TimeOut Market. It's also very close to the river's edge. We walked to and from and took ubers. On the street behind there are a few restaurants and convenience stores.
