The apartment is exactly as pictured and quite nice. It is 3 flights of stairs up, but the hallway is well lit as long as you remember to activate the lights which have switch on every landing. We had 4 adults and it was very comfortable. The location was the best part of this apartment. It was in walking distance to so many wonderful attractions/restaurants/shopping and also to several train stations, so travel to Belem, Sintra and Cascais was easy. Liliana was a great host, very responsive, welcoming and friendly.
