Lisbon holiday apartment: Campo Ourique/Prazeres/Lisboa

We travelled to Lisbon in order to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and in fact it has been a wonderful experience. We decided to book this property and it came out to be the best choice we could have made. It´s as pretty as it looks in the pictures --lovely, in fact!! and it is located in a quiet and great area Campo Ourique, easy to get by car, with a traditional market just around the corner with nice vegetables, there are also nice restaurants (ask Mario, he will recommend the best you can find!!!) the streetcar number 28E which goes directly to the center of Lisbon...We drove from Madrid and we could easily park the car just in front of the house and we left it there for the five days we stayed without problems. The house is very clean, well equiped, iron, drier, washer, and we think that it was specially useful the laptop with internet connection to look for addresses or directions.
We stayed from June 10th to 15th which is the time for Lisbon to celebrate St. Antonio (13th) which is the patron saint of the city and areas like Alfama are decorated in a very colourful way, you can eat sardines, and in fact the center smells to sardine, well, the atmosphere is really nice. Not very advisable for people who like quietness.
I´m sure we will come back because there are some things that we did not visit -lack of time!!
For people who love going out, I would recommend the "Docas" which are old piers now converted in nice restaurants and pubs to go out.
Besides Lisbon we visited Belem and Sintra, very nice both of them.
Finally I would like to thank Mario his kindness and the fact of being reachable at any moment to consult any doubt he had. Thank you Mario. Best regards. Ruth

The apartment is very good located and equipped, very comfortable and clean. The owner is very helpful, reliable and friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much and can recommend this place to other travellers.

Property was very clean and good customer service was provided.There is a contact person that helps you with all your questions and problems.There was only one wineglass in the kitchen, the only minor point in the app., all the rest was excellent.

It is in center of Lissabon, not much place to park your car, best to take the public transport.
As for restaurants: prices are high in Lissabon for what you get.

The appartement has the excellent location for people who want to see the authentic town of Lissabon, so for citytrippers.You are in the middle of the town.
