Esther, thanks for your excellent property management support, including your ideas and recommendations! We will come again.

We enjoyed having the windows open and the breezes flowing through the apartment.

The location is excellent and the property manager extremely helpful and responsive. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to shop, visit restaurants, go to Fado and tour Alfama. The amazing Time Out food court is only a few minutes away by foot. There are small mercados with affordable wine in the neighbourhood -- you certainly won't need a car to get your basic necessities. From the airport, the apartment was only an 8 euro Uber ride, which was a good value considering the distance (over 7 kilometres through the city). The apartment is charming -- lots of character, and with a great view of the river and bridge. Although there were only two of us travelling together, I could easily imagine a group of five or six good friends fitting into the flat. There is a dishwasher, a washing machine, and a clothesline; a Nespresso coffee maker and a large refrigerator; an oven, a stove, and a microwave that might also do convection. The Internet was strong and connected to 5 G and lower devices. I would caution those with mobility issues that there are many stairs (over 70) to climb in order to reach the flat. That said, I am over sixty and managed fine. In fact, I lost weight on my vacation, which I partially attribute to the daily climb. Another cautionary note is that the apartment can get noisy at night, as it is just a stone's throw from Pink Street. If you plan to go out and enjoy yourself at night, this will be a bonus. If you plan for an early bedtime, sleep in the master bedroom, which is quiet, or bring earplugs. One other note of caution is that there is construction taking place directly across the street. At times during the day, I imagine, it could get noisy. It wasn't an issue for me, as I was out every day. Also, the construction crew appeared to wait until at least 8 am to start their work. From my perspective, the cost of the rental was quite reasonable for what it offered, so I didn't mind putting up with a bit of hammering over a late breakfast. Finally, be patient with the door to the flat. It uses an ancient skeleton key, which takes some time to master. My daughter and I perfected our technique by the end of the week. Pushing in while turning the key halfway appears to be the secret. Overall, I would stay there again without hesitation.

This apartment was a terrific location, close to the ferry,subway trams,& trolley . Local restaurants were excellent. Apartment was large and comfortable with fully equipped kitchen. Beautiful views of the Tagus river. We had a wonderful time here. Esther our host was very eager to help with anything we needed and went out of her way to make us feel at home. Much better than a hotel! We recommend this apartment totally. We will be back. Obrigado Esther!
