Review Submitted: January 5, 2009
Date of Stay: December 2008
We love this apartment even more after our second stay, which will not be the last. What we like most is the light that floods in through high windows, which seems to take in the whole sky. We also appreciate to have a landlord like Filipe, easy to get in touch with, always willing to help, generous with advise and assistance. Then it's the furniture and equipment - all is selected with a sence of quality and with taste, everything cleen and inviting. The building and the buildings around also have a unique architectural quality, rebuilt under supervision of Alvaro Siza. The location is fabulous, right in the middle of Chiado, itself a sight for it's urban elegance with a historic, unikely lisboetan touch and cafes with wonderful pasteis de natas. From Chiado there are just minutes by foot to main sights in the old centre, either it's the Bairro Alto, The Praca do Commercio, the Avenida, or the Baixa. The metro is two minutes away, the Rossio station five minutes, Cais do Sodre maybe ten - one metro stop. Trams to Belem from Praca de Figuera are five minutes away, the famous 28 tram three minutes up Rua Garret a.s.o. If you plan to live in an apartment during your visit to Lisbon: you won't regret a stay here.
