This apartment is much better than the photos indicate (and bigger). The location is definitely a big plus, being amongst a very welcoming and eclectic community. It was within 10 minutes of public transport or just key areas you want to walk in and it's only about 20 minutes walk to the city centre. We ended up walking pretty much everywhere from here. Yes, it's a little hilly but that's Lisbon and you'll strike that pretty much anywhere unless you stay in the centre. The square around the corner from the apartment is perfect for spending the evening enjoying the lively vibe and it's like that well into the night. The apartment itself is very spacious for the area. A great big bed, fantastic shower and kitchen with every amenity you might need. The cute little courtyard is nice and private (although we didn't use it as it was raining most of our stay). There's a nice living space connected to the kitchen area, separate to the bedroom which then connects to another alcove room leading to thr courtyard so plenty of space. We loved it and would definitely stay again.
Oh and Maria and her son Antonio were the best hosts, communicating with us leading up to the booking and during out stay to ensure everthing was fine with us. They were quick to answer any questions and incredibly helpful. Antonio's list of recommended places to eat is really long. We managed a couple and both were great. That said, every single meal we had in Lisbon was amazing. If nothing else, the food in this city is one reason you should definitely visit.
