I wanted a quiet apartment with outdoor space and a good kitchen, in a walkable neighborhood, while I waited to meet friends and travel on. This place was perfect. It was very clean and well stocked, including with ground coffee. They arranged for a transfer from the apartment and allowed me leave my suitcase the morning I arrived, well before check in. The kind woman who was cleaning the apartments helped me carry my bag upstairs, showed me around the apartment, and gave me a quick run-down of the neighborhood. There was a grocery steps up the road, and a number of small shops, one in which a very cheerful man sold me a SIM card and helped me install it. The location was good; I was able to easily walk uptown to the Parc Eduardo VII, around which were several nice restaurants, or in the opposite direction, straight down the hill to a more pedestrian area with restaurants (more touristy) and lots of coffee shops. Later in my trip I stayed in Principe Real, which was a lot more touristy—I preferred the quieter location of this Lis Apartment.
