Well placed just far enough out so its not crazy. Close enough to transport links to make getting around easy. The apartment is perfect for those wanting to be out most of the time, which you will be. The near by bus stop for the 774 is good for getting to the closest metro and after 21.00 or on the weekends it takes you into town. For the rest of the time the 711 bus from amorieras near the shopping centre takes you in also. Near by the mercado campo de ourique is a must visit we went there for food most nights.
