João's place is amazing, looks much better than the pictures, the location is great you can reach any major monument in the center by foot, the Piaza Espanha is the furthest one and is about 30min walk, the Setas are 3min walk. Parking there was a bit of a challenge but we made it, we had an opel corsa, i don'trecommend renting any car biiger than that. The flat is super charming and you really feel the city vibes and culture through it. Just don't rent it if you don't like stairs. I would stay there again definitely
