Bruno was very quick to answer any questions we had by email and supplied us with an extra set of keys when we asked. Everything was very simple to organise and we would have no problem staying here again.

The apartment is located on the third floor, at the top of a beautiful old staircase. There is no common area in the apartment, just the two bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. However, the double bed room is very spacious and has a couch and chairs, which gives you somewhere to sit for a few drinks and get ready before heading out.

It's is very centrally located in an area with plenty of nice bars and restaurants. It is 15/20mins walk to the 'Ribeirinha'/Riverside, and most places are within walking distance. Taxis are cheap, and the metro station is close by. It cost us (4 people) €13 for a taxi to the airport vs. €2.45 each for a metro ticket to the apartment on the day we arrived.

There is a bar on the lane which is very popular, with customers out on the street late/early that can be very noisy on weekend nights with the windows open.
