The apartment is in a central location yet far from the chaos. Small walks to baixa , alfama and metro stations. The view and room is lovely. Check-in was easy and the owner is available to respond. He solved a small problem we had immediately and we appreciated it.

Aside from being on the fourth floor of a historic building with narrow, beautiful old stairs and no elevator, I think a few minor repairs are needed to make the apartment more comfortable for guests. The wooden shutters don’t close properly because the metal fittings have been painted over, the cabinet doors need some repair, and the glass shower door doesn’t close properly and should be repaired or replaced. With a little maintenance and more attention to cleanliness, this could be an excellent apartment.

La situation du logement

Le bruit de la rue et les volets ne ferment pas ce qui laisse passer beaucoup de lumière du jour le matin

This is a comfortable apartment with more than enough room for two people. Not really mentioned in the description, there is a convenient front room with room for large bags and a big wardrobe available. There's a full kitchen that suited our needs and made it easy to prepare a small breakfast and coffee to be taken on the little balcony with a superb view of old Lisbon. We found the apartment comfortable and communication with the host excellent. There are shops and restaurants nearby, the metro station right there, and it's an easy walk to the central Rossio train station and the city center.

The neighbourhood is a bit rough, it's true, but we didn't experience any issues. There's also a police station directly across the street, with a significant presence provided. A few small repairs in the apartment can make it perfect.

The property is well located although the area may look a little downmarket. It is a walkable distance to the Alfama district and the main shopping areas in Lisbon. There are numerous restaurants and a grocery store nearby. The apartment is a comfortable size and has a great view. The tv has a few English channels which was enjoyable during rainy weather.

Unfortunately the bathroom is small and difficult to move in. The shower is tiny and uncomfortable. The apartment is very cold and has no lift so walking up to the fourth floor with luggage is difficult. In spite of this it is a comfortable apartment which is well equipped with a washing machine, iron, drying wrack, toaster, iron and stove top. The living area is roomy and comfortable.
