Pedro's place offers more than i can describe in this review. Well staffed kitchen with the best appliances on the market, thoughtfully arranged furniture in the living room and plenty of storage in the bedroom. High quality towels, fruit basket and a bottle of wine for guests say a lot about Pedro and his wife Sofia's high level of hospitality. They are young and energetic, busy with full time work and kids. Nevertheless, they found time to greet us personally upon arrival and respond to our needs. They are very pleasant people and we wish to spend more time with them (and their elder daughter India who kindly helped us to conquer the dishwasher).
The apartment is conveniently located on the hills of Oeiris, 20 min comfortable walk down the hill towards downtown (and train station) or 20 min up the hill to a big shopping center named Parque Oeiris near the Park of Poets (which is the destination by itself). There are 5 or 6 buses going around too. It's a densely populated area with multi-storied apartment buildings, well maintained side walks, small parks, coffee shops, groceries, etc. We felt safe walking around at night from one place to another, exploring the area. The best restaurant in the area for us was A Quinta near the train station Oeiras where Caesar was very kind to serve us dinner before the opening.
