The flat is perfect - spacious, clean and with all modern conveniences. The linens and towels were fresh and there was just enough neutral amenities to feel like “home” without being cluttered or too personalized to any one style. Lots of room to spread out as a family. The absolute game changer this apartment doesn’t sell enough is the location! It was truly the best. 2 blocks from a main train station, short walk to Rossio and the central area. 2 blocks from the Time Out Market (which we visited every day!!!) and just a lovely neighborhood overall. It can get a bit noisy at night with Pink Street nearby, but we heeded reviews and brought earplug and closed the windows which easily did the trick. The interior bedrooms didn’t hear anything.
The entry way and stairs are somewhat dark and get very narrow, so if you are unable to easily navigate 3 tight flights with tiny, close together stairs this will not be a good fit. It worked fine for us and JC was a great hostess. Easy to get in touch with, checkin was perfect and we just loved her apartment!
My 9 year old asked if “we could just live there forever!” - loved Portugal and a big part of our experience was this wonderful flat.
