This is a lovely apartment. From the airport, it's one change on the metro and less than 2 minutes from the Avenida metro stop. If you Google map it, you can see the road from the metro station. Rita and Miguel were extremely good at making arrangements. When we arrived, we were met and keys handed over. The apartment is the top two floors of a block. The photograph would suggest that the balcony is part of the property, but this is the apartment beneath. However, there are so many windows in the apartment, that the effect is the same! Quite a steep staircase leading up from the street brings you to the front door. it's a safe area and a very secure property. It's extremely clean and well furnished. The kitchen has everything you need and the lounge has a pull out bed settee. There is a bathroom on both floors, but the upstairs bathroom has a double shower just off the bedroom area. Although it's designed for four, it would be a little tight. For the two of us it felt ideal. The kitchen has everything you need for a short stay. No oven, however. Wi-fi and water pressure are excellent. The hosts leave a comprehensive guide to Lisbon for your use. It's an ideal setting for sightseeing. It's at the right end of the city. 15 minute walk takes you to see sea through the main shopping area. The castle and the Barrio Alto are only a quick funicular away. There are two small bakeries within 1 minute walk...good bread and pastries for breakfast. A small supermarket provides adequate supplies....wine, beer, butter, etc. There is an interesting Chinese restaurant down the road and quite a few sensibly priced restaurants / cafeterias within five minutes walking. OK , the apartment doesn't have a great view..just the building opposite, but you're there to go and see the city. For a hilly city, being in the flatter part of Lisbon is a bonus. If you're planning for the summer....there is air con. For cooler days, I dare say the air con will double up as a heater. It was about 16 degrees when we were there and we were warmer in the apartment than outside.
