Fantastic location!!! Fantastic host!!!
This little apartment is so cute and quaint - perfect location for listening to Fado and wandering the older part of Lisbon. It's also close to the main square so getting to/from other areas such as Belem or Sintra can be done with ease. Tons of little places to eat and listen to Fado right around the corner.
We loved the little pastry shop just below the apartment, but also the pizza place around the corner (I know... not typical Portuguese but it was very good!) but there are so many little Portuguese "cafeterias" within a couple blocks with delicious food.
Ricardo was great - he was easy to communicate from start to finish, walked us through everything we'd need in the apartment, where to eat, what to see. He also picked us up from the airport and took the longer route in order to show us a little about Lisbon and point out some highlights and favourites of his. This also gave us an opportunity to get acquainted with the area in order to find the main square/train station.
One thing to mention, and it's outside of Ricardo's control, is that there was construction in the building next door that started at 7:30am on weekdays - I bought earplugs on the second morning and it helped quite a bit so be prepared!
