What a fantastic apartment! We were greeted at Baixa - Chiado metro station (I absolutely recommend getting the metro here from the airport - very cheap and easy) by Nuno's friend Laura. The flat was a mere 5 minutes walk away and just as described with fantastic views across the river.

Laura was incredibly helpful at advising us on places to visit and things to do in the local area, as well as on the flat itself.

The flat is relatively spacious, with a fantastic balcony and very bright rooms. It is situated in a lovely area, with a superb restauran just down the street and a short walk from some fantastic parts of town.

The only slight drawback, which were well advised of beforehand by Nuno, were the street parties outside the flat on Friday/Saturday nights in June - best to join in rather than try and sleep through it!
