The apartment is located in a residential area, but you can get to the tram after only 2 minutes of walking. The neighborhood is full of low priced shops and restaurants, where many of the Portuguese are eating too. We certainly enjoyed Graca as a starting point for discovering Lisbon! The apartment was exactly as described - very nice! It's well equipped and the bei is very cozy.
Our host came with a little delay and the apartment was not cleaned yet, but he apologized thouroughly and gave us extensive advice for our stay, so all in all that was okay. We would certainly stay again in this apartment!
