Simone's apartment is a wonderful, cosy place to stay. Location is great, walking distance to the main centre, although we would also recommend going to the Intendente metro station stop if using public transport to get a day pass. We really loved being able to use the kitchen, it is thoughtfully stocked with a few essentials, & the pingo doce supermarket down the street was helpful. At the end of busy sightseeing days we really appreciated relaxing in the apartment, the air con was greatly appreciated. Everybody staying had a comfortable sleep on beds & sofa, the street noise was no problem at all. We all enjoyed our time at this beautiful home, & recommend eating at Sr. Lisboa which is a brilliant tapas restaurant about a 10 min walk away. We felt very happy & safe staying in the apartment, and would highly recommend this home to others.
