We spent a wonderful 5 weeks in Lisbon, the apartment is beautiful, clean and walking distance (or a quick cab) to anywhere in the city. We had our daughter with us so we spent a lot of time in Jardim da Estrela, a beautiful park with playground and two cafes, it's buzzing on weekends with picnics, craft markets and sometimes live jazz or a DJ.
Marisa was extremely helpful, always quick to answer any questions; she arranged for cleaners to visit twice during our stay and she put us in touch with a babysitter so we could go out in the evening.
The 28 tram leaves from outside the Basilica straight into the city centre, and there in a taxi rank there as well. The Pingo supermarket is just round the corner, and Campo de Ourique food market is a short stroll.
The apartment is up a few flights of stairs so be prepared, but this is usual in Lisbon and the views of the Basilica and the river from the living room window are stunning. Lisbon is an amazing city and we'd love to return!
