The apartment is beautifully furnished and very stylish. It is at the top of a steep road, but can be approached from the other direction, which makes it much easier (tell your taxi driver to go to the Photographic Museum end rather than just telling them Rua da Tras). It is close to tour bus stops, and to the airport bus stops. It also has great views.
The kitchen and bathroom are really well and thoughtfully equipped. The WiFi is good, and there are TVs in both living rom and bedroom. Both rooms also have really good fans. The windows are big so the apartment is light and airy, but all the windows have shutters, which makes it cool on hot days.
Dulce and Valentim have great suggestions about places to visit, and are altogether great hosts.
