The apartment was very clean and spacious and the hostess is very friendly and communicative. The neighborhood has a good variety of restaurants, shops and mini market within minutes from your doorstep. The hostess mentioned they were partway through insulating the ceiling to dampen some of the ambient noise from the upstairs neighbors. I would have to agree with that idea, because they are a bit loud. Despite that, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again on a return to Lisbon.
