The apartment is in a great location for exploring Lisbon by foot or public transport. It's also a very convenient base from which to do a day trip to Sintra. Tiago was in contact regularly before our trip, providing lots of information, including the best way to arrive from the airport (for €1.25!). His friend Sonia welcomed us & showed us around the flat so we knew how everything worked. Tiago has also put together a booklet of recommendations for places to eat & drink in Lisbon, which we really appreciated - it saved us a lot of research. And breakfast on the roof terrace was very pleasant way to start the day!
