The location of the flat is really practical, being close to the Trindade Metro station. It might look far on the map but it was an easy enough walk down the hill to the town, metro station or grocery store or even cafes.
This flat is very spacious; with one bedroom in the back off of the street side and the living room on the cobblestone street side. The neighbor was relatively quiet except on Saturday night, there were more cars driving on the street which one hears the rubber rolling over the cobblestones. However, you don’t have the feeling you are in the middle of the tourist zone, but a residential area. If you were in a flat in the old city, there would be noise from bars, cafes, street musicians, and the crowds.
Trindade is a good metro station to go in all directions. The kitchen has a Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, toaster, full size refrigerator and freezer. The water from the faucet is also drinkable and clean which is a bonus too. The pans and utensils are basic and show their use but function to make breakfast or fry simple things. There is a fan if needed.
There was a bidet which is great but there was no rubber stopper to keep the water from flowing out if one so desires. The furnishings are ikea style and a mix but functional. The sofa bed where I slept was comfortable, but one does hear some noise of the cars traveling in the neighborhood, but not on a major arterial.
For the price, one cannot complain. It is totally functional and the location is good. I would stay there again.
There is also a big balcony with patio, comfortable lounge chairs and an eating table. 2 bicycles were provided but they have just one gear....so you need to be fit to ride them. There are not so many bike paths either and a lot of uneven paving or mostly cobblestones so we opted not to use them
