This apartment was really amazing! It is so light, bright and open. It is high up, across from where a street comes to a T, so you have the wonderful Portuguese street vibe, but also an open space to enjoy the balconies. It is also at the absolute center of everything--yet feels quiet and neighborhood-ish. It is literally a block off the main (and stunning) Avenida da Liberdade, plus adjacent to both giant squares--Restauradores and Rossio--where many type of public transport are available. I stayed there with my sister, and we each had or own rooms and spaces--and the common areas worked well. The kitchen is well-appointed--we cooked several times. The one thing we had worried about was the bathroom. The photos seemed a bit dark (it is so hard to photograph a bathroom). This turned out to be one of the best features--big and bright! It is totally up-dated with a modern basin sink and great toilet. The shower was exceptional--large with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The team members were responsive and helpful--and they have obviously prioritized making a welcoming and informative scenario for guests--including a very useful manual. Right below the apt is the best Indian restaurant I have EVER eaten in--"Tamarind". 1.5 blocks down the street is a lovely small park with a kiosk where we had refreshing sangria after a long day of sightseeing--the famous Gloria tram is 1.5 blocks the other direction to take you up to a stunning Miradouro and hip neighborhood. Like so many buildings in Portugal right now--it is being renovated, but we did not experience any issues with that at all. In fact--we so admire the whole country for the way it is preserving what is special and significant about its architecture, while updating interiors to work for the 21st century. I highly recommend this apartment to anyone, and would happily stay here again in the future.
