This apartment has a superb location in the centre of Lisbon. It's just a few minutes walk to the lively bars in Bairro Alto, the shopping area in Chiado or the more hip and quiet Principe Real. The street is very quiet and we did not experience any noise from the many bars which are just around the corner. It's an old, beautiful and characteristic building but take into account that it lacks isolation. So if there's any noise to experience it'll be the upper neighbours (and you will be the noise for the downstairs neighbours). There's a nice living/dining room with loads of daylight and a balcony to start and end your day. Unfortunately no view from the balcony, but nevertheless a real pleasure to sit there. The kitchen was well equipped to make our breakfasts. We didn't get the chance to cook diners since Lisbon has so many nice restaurants. The host was very responsive before and during our stay. We had some little issues but all was taken care of very well.
