This apartment is better than what the listing shows. It is located close to grocery, beauty salons, coffee shops, a pastry cafe, and also a 10-15 minute walk to many other restaurants and shops.
It is also a 7 minute Uber drive (2-7 Euro) to the central train/bus station and the Vasco Da Gama mall (many food and drink options here also).
If you are looking at getting the Barrio or main attractions, it's a 20-30 minute drive and anywhere from 15-28 Euro for an Uber (depending on time of day and option chosen).
If you care about proximity to the airport..... 7 minute Uber (again 2-7 Euro) drive.
There's never a shortage of drivers, taxi or Uber, but had a much better experience with Uber as every driver I had spoke English. Avoid the frustration with the taxis (and extra costs) and stick with Uber if you are not renting a vehicle.
More than anything, the apartment is immaculate in cleanliness and location. Every amenity worked flawlessly and it was nice to be able to cook when we wanted to every night. There's more than enough storage and the apartment itself has a rather modern design.
Afonso is a wonderful host, meeting me at the day of checkin to show me the apartment and giving me instructions on how to operate everything. Other than hearing the occasional neighbor, the location is quiet and private.
I highly recommend this apartment based on accuracy of the amenities, location, and price. It's unbeatable for what you get for the money.
