The location in perfect. 5-10 minute walk to the metro (which takes you to the city centre in just a few stops) and also to the train station which is a great starting point if you are travelling to any beach or to Lisbon. The apartment is nice, fairly clean and the kithcen has everything you could think of. The host was nice and warmly welcomming and provided me with information about local restaurants and nearby public transportation stops.
In a very close proximity the is a huge shopping mall and supermarket. Recommend!
