About this property

Unique apartment: 18th century glazed tiles (azulejos) in city center

In the center of town, close to the Parliament, a short walking distance to Chiado and Bairro Alto, with their nightlife, shops, museums and theatres, and on the route of tram 28, the most scenic tram in Lisbon...

The building underwent full renovation in 2004 and the project was awarded the second prize in an yearly competition that appraises the reconstruction of old town buildings throughout Portugal. Its major source of beauty are the glazed tiles (azulejos), dating from the 18th and 19th centuries, which are different from floor to floor, thus rendering each apartment unique.

We had a great 4 week stay. The apartment was very clean and well equipped. Carlos was there to welcome us and to see us off. The only time we needed assistance was when a light needed replacement and Carlos was quick to respond. It is in a great location within walking distance of a grocery store and very good restaurants. The tram to city centre is within a few minutes walk.Would be pleased to stay there again.John and Elaine

Wonderful

This was my first trip to Lisbon and Portugal. The apartment exceeded all my expectations! Travel as a solo female can seem daunting. The check-in was very easy, punctual and friendly. The apartment was completely equipped and stocked with everything a person could want or need.I found the location ideal and well situated to public transit as well as restaurants. If visiting Lisbon…this is a wonderful stay!

Comfortable and convenient

This nicely decorated and well-equipped one bedroom apartment was just perfect for our visit! The owner communicated quickly with us and was very agreeable to our requests. Nice location with nearby grocery store and other businesses around. If stairs are difficult for you, this may not be a good choice for you. Otherwise, we highly recommend it.

Great location

The apartment is situated perfectly and central to everything we wanted to do. We loved the tile accents and old-world charm of the place. We stayed for 4 weeks, and the weekly cleaning was very nice and appreciated. We did some remote work there, and the internet was very fast, and we had no issues. We never saw any other tenants in the building, but we could hear other people's footsteps and even conversations at times. We read other reviews about this, though, and came prepared with earplugs for sleeping.

Fantastic stay with so many extras!

Really great experience! Ana and her team were very responsive. The apartment is absolutely lovely, comfortable, very convenient for exploring the city, yet quiet enough to sleep with windows open. Kitchen well equipped with pantry items left from prior stays (coffee, condiments, oils, etc.) And so many extra thoughtful touches - welcome bottle of wine, two reloadable cards for public transit (which we made good use of), a ton of guidebooks (organized by language :)), local music, etc. Really made our stay wonderful. Muito obrigado!

A great place to stay away from the crowds but still in a convenient neighborhood.

At first I thought I wanted to stay right next to a Metro station, but when we saw the pictures of this apartment we could not resist picking this place. Although Tram 28 was not running by the apartment during our stay, the charm of the narrow streets cannot be overstated. Also I believe we made the better choice than staying in the Alfama district as we had walking access to Rossio Station for our excursion to Sintra and Cais de Sodré for our excursion to Cascais. And we were close to Baixo-Chiado too!The apartment itself has all the amenities that we needed. The newer windows did a superb job of keeping out the outside noise. There was a nice collection of CDs that we took advantage of playing. There is a small pastry cafe right outside the front door, but we mostly cooked our own breakfast every day and either dinner or lunch to save on costs and calories!The hosts were very helpful and gave us great suggestions.I highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience Lisbon as a local.

Wir waren zu zweit und hatten tolle 2 Wochen. Die Wohnung ist super zentral gelegen, man erreicht den Bahnhof Cais de Sodro in 10 min. Von dort kann man in zu den Stränden oder in die nächsten schönen Orte wie Cascais. Leider ist es etwas laut in der Wohnung vom Straßenlärm. Auch ist es bei um die 30 Grad sehr warm, weil es keine Klimaanlage gibt. Aber ansonsten ist die Wohnung gut ausgestattet, wir wurden sehr nett empfangen und haben schöne Empfehlungen von Carlos bekommen. Vielen Dank.

Een ruim, sfeervol appartement in een buurt met restaurantjes en winkeltjes om de hoek. Alles voor een prettig verblijf is aanwezig. Bovendien stond er een lekkere fles wijn voor ons klaar in de koelkast. De eigenaresse heeft ook erg veel info over Lissabon in meerdere talen beschikbaar. Ook zorgde ze voor een taxi om ons heel vroeg naar het vliegveld te brengen. Topdagen gehad in Lissabon!

Great location

Carlos gave us a warm welcome and introduction to the neighborhood, transportation, grocery store. The only downside is the garbage truck every morning at about 7 o´clock, very noisy. Otherwise perfect location within walking distance to mostly everything in the old town, trainstation, ferries etc. Spotless apartment, good space for two persons. Nice small cafes and restaurants close. Thanks for a pleasant stay.

Why they chose this property

I saw the glazed tiles and the wooden floors and that was it -- decision taken! Also, I had attended school very close by, so everything felt like home.
