Wonderful location and studio apartment. I would recommend this apartment for anyone going to Lisbon solo or as a couple.

1) The studio looked just like the pictures. It was clean, modern and big enough for me by myself or if I had on other person with me. More than that may be difficult. The shower had lots of hot water and a very nice shower head. The bathroom was nicely updated. I wasn't used to the slant in the roof by the bed / couch, so I bumped my head once or twice when I first arrived, but I quickly became used to it. I didn't use the kitchen at all.

2) The location could not have been more perfect - it was right in Bairro Alto, 10 steps from a taxi stand on Rua Dom Pedro and conveniently located a 5 minute walk from Bars and Restaurants in Bairro Alto. 10 minute walk to bars, shops and restaurants in Chiado. I originally looked at studios on Rua Atalaia and Rua Diario de Noticias b/c they seemed to be more active, but I'm so thrilled I didn't stay there (those are filled with bars and remain loud until 3-4-5 am (I came home at those types of hours to quiet apartment).

3) The sisters were wonderfully friendly - Joanne met me upon arrival and gave me keys. She was very sweet and I enjoyed meeting her.

4) The only two minor issues were (a) on Saturday night, there were people in the building not observing the quiet period and seemed to be sitting in the stairway talking and they woke me up a few times with their voices. It wasn't a big problem though and (b) the building door lock was a bit difficult to get used to from the outside - you have to press the key upwards a little as you turn it in order to open the door. Again, not a big deal, but the first time I came home, I was worried I had the wrong key and called the hosts, who were available right away.
