We loved the location. half way up the very steep steps. from Cais Sodre station. walk across to Time out Market, then cross the main road and look for the very steep steps. Next to the old cable tramway. vernacular railway. The apartment has steep stairs also. then we had the big front room, which was lovely and light. there are 4 other rooms! a good shared kitchen and only one small bathroom to share! It was OK. we stayed 5 days. fairly clean. lots of bars and shops nearby. not too noisy either.
