The apartment is in a great location within the popular Bairro Alto restaurant and bar area. During the day, the surrounding streets are very quiet but at night the streets come alive with both locals and tourists and is quite loud and rowdy every night until 3am. The double glazing for all of the windows means that you can chose to open the windows and enjoy the outside atmosphere once you get home or you can close them and not hear a thing.
Julia was quick and great to communicate with. Self check in was very easy and the apartment is stylishly decorated.
Quick tip for future visitors to this apartment is that although the apartment is close to many train stations (Rossio metro and above ground; Restauradores metro; and, Baixa-Chiado metro), getting off the train at Baixa-Chiado with suitcases is best as it’s a much shorter uphill walk to the apartment (Lisbon is extremely hilly!!). This station has escalators all the way up to the exit at the corner of R. Nova da Trindade/R. Garrett with the exception of one short flight of stairs up to street level.
