This Flat is exactly what we were hoping to find after seeing the photos and upon arriving in the city. It remains cool even if the outside world is a furnace wich was a blessing during our stay. If you arrive during the san antonio festivities, you're exposing yourself to a bad night if you're light sleeper otherwise, the street is very peaceful.
Maria took the time to advise us and aswer our questions about the apartment and the city even if she had urgent matters on hand wich makes her a great host especially if you add to that her friendliness and warmth.
The area Bairro Alto is an ideal place to arrive into : typical lisbon stairs, pretty houses, nice old ladies and in the evening, many many bars and some good restaurants to choose from.
