The Sweet Balcony apartment was the perfect little flat for a short break in Lisbon. The accommodation has everything you need comfortable bed; kitchen; excellent bathroom as well as its own great balcony looking out over the rooftops of Barrio Alto.
The flat is easy to and find (10min walk from railway stations; 5min walk from the metro) and it took us only 45mins from leaving the airport to getting to the front door using the very cheap public transport system. When arriving Priscilla was easy to contact through her mobile and was there to open the flat as we arrived. She provided lots of information and local insight to the city and what there was to do and see. She also allowed us to store our luggage at either end of our stay meaning those days could be enjoyed without having to drag cases round the city.
The location, in the heart of Lisbon, is close to many of Lisbon's major attractions (Mercado de Ribeira 10mins walk; Castel Sao Jorge 20 mins walk; Elvador De Santa Justa 5 mins walk) and Barrio Alto is a lively and eclectic place to stay. Full of a wide range of shops, cafes, bars and restaurants you never go short of somewhere to eat or drink at any time of day. It is a wonderful collection of small, cobbled streets full of life round the clock though the flat, being on the fourth floor remained peaceful and quiet.
The perfect place for a city break!
