Perfect Lisbon base! We were enchanted by Barrio Alto from the moment we arrived and couldn’t have been more pleased with this apartment. The location is extraordinary - in the stunning cobbled streets of the Barrio, yet distant enough (by a couple of blocks) from the insane nightlife of the neighborhood; a 10-minute walk to Baixa or Av. Liberdade, close to public transportation. The apartment is the perfect travel base: comfortable beds, plenty of hot water with great pressure in the showers (though the bathrooms are quite small); a comfortable living room with every amenity (including washing machine despite the self-service laundromat across the street). We really wanted air conditioning in this hot summer and were so glad to have it. The beds were comfortable and the shutters kept it dark. Three small terraces were lovely - including the top floor one, from which we could see the water. The bottle of wine was classy, and most of all, Mafalda’s responsiveness and thorough orientation (in writing and in person) were just first-rate. I would absolutely return, and recommend the place without reservation. Muito obrigada!
