We had a great stay at Daniel’s apartment, in a really vibrant area of Lisbon. We loved the view from the expansive balcony. You get such a memorable sense of the area with several street vistas and a view reaching out to the Tagus. You can eat breakfast on the balcony in the Morning as the trams pass below you.
The location is really great. There are so many places to eat and drink very near by. Try Santa Bica, which is literally just across the street, very good prices for the quality of the food. Bairro Alto is just up the road which is a popular drinking spot.
We loved the general feel of the apartment and it gave us a real sense of being in the old town of Lisbon, rustic and traditional.
However there were a couple of minor issues. The toilet door didn’t shut properly, it didn’t close at all. This should definitely be fixed. Also, we felt that daniel could have communicated a little more before our stay. He was quite hard to reach and didn’t go into much depth when we asked him about the area. Susana, who met us at the apartment, however, was very informative and answered any questions that we had about the area. She was also available if we had problems during our stay.
We still had a really amazing time in the apartment and would recommend it to our friends that were planning on staying in the city.
