If experiencing Lisbon in the heart of the old town is your choice then this is the place for you. If you have a car there is an added bonus of a secure parking spot in the building. The tram 28 is a popular tourist attraction and literally runs right by the building and can be noisy at times but don't let that stop you if you are there for the real Lisbon feeling. We had no issues sleeping as it was surprisingly quiet for the 4 days we were there. Also, the apartment is very spacious and it was a real nice change after dealing with cramped hotel rooms during our vacation.
