Staying at Sofia’s apartment was a delight. It’s walkable proximity to the Martin Moniz tram hub and metro made it a super place in terms of connectivity to the heart of the city.
Check in was great as we were met by a friend of Sofia who took time to guide us around the flat and offer suggestions for good tourist things to do.
The apartment has great views out over the city, Lisbon is far more hilly than I thought so be prepared to walk up lots of steps! The building is characterful and wooden floored so you do hear the neighbours from time to time. It’s a big open plan space so can be tricky to get warmth throughout it so think smartly as to when to turn the heater on and where to place it for maximum effectiveness.
There is a Lidl 5minutes down the road for anything essential or a quick, easy, lazy, meal which is also great.
Thanks Sofia, would love to return in the summer to experience the city in another season!
