Leonor’s apartment is near perfection. We appreciated the interior decor, and her use of high quality flooring, plumbing fixtures and kitchen appliances. Everything there is top drawer.
We loved that she sprang for a smart tv with streaming channels and strong internet. Check the bottom of the router, just behind the tv for Wi-Fi password and signal name.
The apartment itself is a loft on the second and third floors up a few sets of stairs with new, spacious bathrooms and huge showers, unusual for short term Portuguese rentals.
We made use of the rooftop terrace daily for happy hour, it has lovely views of the suspension bridge and the Christ the Redeemer statue that matches its Brazilian twin.
There’s a bus that drives right down her street, and the charming 18E tram drops you just up the hill a block away.
The Pingo Doce supermarket around the corner is huge and very well stocked with a surprising assortment of products including in-store bakery, fish monger and massive selection of wines which are all good and way cheap.
We recommend this apartment for all the extras she’s included.
