This two bedroom apartment was on the edge of the Barrio Alto, which was perfect. It meant a taxi could drop you practically at your door since the street in front of the apartment does not allow cars. There are many restaurants, bars and bakeries within walking distance. It is basically in the perfect location.
Checkin was easy and in person. João was very nice, spoke English and gave us tips in the area which were very useful.
The pictures make the carpet and furniture look very bright, it is a little more muted in person. I would say the Furnishings are a bit dated, but that didn’t bother us.
When we first arrived, we were a bit nervous about the street noise. However the windows and shutters in the unit are amazing. You close them and you hear none of the street noise. And the shutters make the room perfect for sleeping
On the downside, as with other reviews the beds in the units were not stellar. We were two people and only use the main bedroom, and feel the mattress needs to be replaced. After being there a week we were ready to move on and have a more comfortable bed.
That said, overall the apartment worked well for us, and I would consider renting it again if I came back to Lisbon.
