This was our first trip to Lisbon and we stayed here 14 nights. Little did we know what an excellent location we chose! From our balcony we had partial views of the Castelo Sao Jorge and the Rio Tejo. There is enough space on the balcony to bring out two chairs and enjoy the evening air. With window closed, the street noises are minimized; however, the sound of an occasional barking dog or friend calling to friend just adds to the charm of the neighborhood, which is generally quiet. Rossio Square and Praca de Figueroa are all just a few minutes away by foot. Exploring the Baixa, Chiado and Alfama districts by walking is very easy! The apartment itself is on the fourth floor of a typical building on a charming narrow sloping street lined by various restaurants and shops. The bathroom is large and comfortable. The kitchen is sufficiently equipped to enjoy a nice breakfast for two. The air conditioner works well. And the bed is comfortable. If and when the host decides for future upgrades, a mattress frame that does not squeak would be welcomed. I would definitely stay here again!
