My first view of the flat was after taking 80+ stairs to get to it, carrying a rollerbag and backpack. 😳
Stairs from door to flat were steep, but doable. The pile of cleaning supplies atvthe top of those stairs made things tricky, but not impossible. Hallway lights (from door to flat) aren’t intuitive. Thank goodness for the flashlight on my phone, as there were a few times I couldn’t get them to work, and it was late (v. Dark).
The flat consists of a kitchen with a table for 2 (and window), bedroom with patio doors (no patio, but nice for air circulation), and bathroom (with shower; window, sink, toilet. I missed that there was not a living room/ den, but was solo, so it was okay. Could be tight with 2 ppl.
Views were nice - but expect to have cruise ships in every photo of the river. Neighboring buildings are cute and so instagrammable.
Restaurants within a 2-3 minute walk - but note that google can get it wrong. Drop a pin on the location in google maps to find it after a few ports.
Charming bedroom, kitchen.
Bath was okay. Toilet seat would fall down if you open it, so trying to sit on the toilet was... an adventure. Fan was broken upon my arrival, so was a bit stuffy and had a sewage scent, which disappeared over time.
I’ll definitely return to Portugal but may stay in a different flat.
