Excellent apartment in Chiado

I strongly recommend this beautiful apartment. It is light and spacious, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and ideal e.g. for two couples traveling together to Lisbon as in our case.
Being on the 5th floor, it provides the most magnificent view of the city, all the way to the castle on the hill (illuminated at night) and to the cathedral. And I cannot imagine a more central position than Rua Garrett for getting around to the different areas of the city, near the Rossio Square and the Baixa-Chiado metro station.
Fado is of course a must when visiting Lisbon. We tried a couple of places, and will recommend Adega do Ribatejo (Rua Diario de Noticias in Bairro Alto). Good food, good fado singing (also by the cook!), and at reasonable prices compared to other, more “tourist-oriented” fado restaurants.
We will most probably return to this city and this apartment sometime in the future.
