Perfect home away form home for our week in Lisbon. Peaceful non tourist filled location close to public transportation. The apartment was very clean and filled with interesting books, especially for the art/photography lover. Everything worked well and the inclusion of the dishwasher and clothes washer was a special treat to make it even more of a vacation. The kitchen had everything you need to cook meals, even for a family of five with teenagers.
Two minute walk to a bus stop that takes you to Santa Apolónia station or on to Cais do Sodre station. From these you can get anywhere in Lisbon or beyond easily. Cais do Sodre was an important one for us, as from there you can get to Belém which is a must for any tourist because of the famous "Pastéis do Belém".
The local owned and operated (40 years) store two doors down was a special treat for us. The owner and his wife treated us like locals from the first moment we arrived.
I can't imagine looking to stay elsewhere on any future trip to Lisbon. Laura, the owner, was extremely helpful and quick to respond to questions and willing to do whatever to make us feel at home. She gave us complete privacy with only a couple quick messages during our visit to make sure everything was going well. A true star of a host! She also speaks and writes excellent English which will be a bonus for non-Portuguese speakers.
