This was an excellent home base for us as we experienced Lisbon. Such a quiet neighborhood, tucked away and surrounded by locals. Our small little apartment was cozy, clean and all we needed. We were very grateful for the very comfortable bed! The trams all over the city are a precious peek into the past and adorable in motion. Consider buying a 24 Hour VIVA viagem pass from the Metro station right away so you can reach many parts of the city easily. Recharging of this ticket is possible. Also there is a ticket that includes both travel and museums. Probably a good value that we missed out on. You must bring and wear GOOD walking shoes while in Lisbon. Navigating the streets and cobblestone sidewalks are a challenge, and will be exhausting for you and your feet if you do not wear comfortable shoes. Also, If it rains, you may slip on the steep cobbled sidewalks. What a joy to discover so many things to do and so many delicious things to eat in this wonderful city! Pssst! Pastel de Nata at the Time Out market is the best in the city and better then Belém!!!!
