This is a superb neighbourhood and I recommend you get out and explore and soak it all up. There is a brewery, Oitava Colina, only 20 mins walk away with delicious beer and many good restaurants too, including Restaurante Alqueire where I ate. Also, the apartment itself is superb and the hospitality is excellent. my only regret is my short stay because I would like to have stayed longer. I used Uber for a 10 min drive to the airport.
