We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Casa da Travessa. The apartment was fitted out with everything we needed. The location was central to restaurants, cafes , a laundromat, and a supermarket.. This is a very lively neighborhood. We were in the old, picturesque part of Lisbon and were close to many beautiful and memorable sights. We walked a lot and also took the inexpensive taxis when we wanted to go farther afield. We ate fabulous seafood at Zapata, a restaurant that was 3 blocks away.
What made our stay most memorable was the help, kindness, and information given to us by Sofia and her partner. Sofia filled us in on things to see and do. With the map she provided and made notes on, we were able to make the most of our three days in Lisbon. There is so much to see and do in this amazing location. When we were leaving, she walked us to the taxi and gave the driver instructions that made our short trip go smoothly. I highly recommend Sofia as a host!
