You can't deny that this apartment is beautifully decorated and in a perfect location, making everywhere from bairro alto to the beach close walking distance. However this was unfortunately dampened by the what I can only call construction site ongoing not only in the road opposite but also the apartment beneath. This renovation meant the front door was left open for the majority of the day and some of the night which made the apartment feel less secure and less safe. With renovation also comes noise, we were out for most of the day and night but work starts early in the morning which woke us up combined with the regular tram which runs directly in front of the apartment. None of this would have been an issue if we were told of this prior to the stay, we could have better prepared or chosen somewhere else to stay for our trip to Lisbon. Instead we weren't told and therefore very surprised to turn up to the apartment which from the outside looked like a building site. Lisbon is a beautiful city and the apartment is lovely, it is just the lack of warning of the ongoing works that we were disappointed with.
