Surprisingly big apartment. Comfortable to live in for a couple of days. Nice people helped us in. It's nearby some nice attractions in Lisbon too. Other places are easily accessible by bus or tram

First the good things: - The apartment is centrally located and is walking distance from the tram, bus and train stations. - It's great if you want to avoid crowds as the area is not very congested like Alfama. - Super close to the Belem Tower, the monastery and a few other sights. - You can walk along the peer to watch the sunset and sunrise. - They have all the basics including Tupperware if you want to pack food for a picnic. - there's a supermarket in walking distance - there's some nice restaurants around and good food options Now the bad stuff, - the bedroom right at the end smells of sardines by evening as there is a restaurant next door. The window is not insulated. Don't get me wrong, I do love my seafood, but after a few days of this smell, I have now been put off sardines for some time!!! - no air-conditioning. It was fine for us because we went in early autumn. But this would be a massive problem in summer. Specially when you can't keep windows open due to the sardine smell. - the bathroom and shower is super small. If you are a big made person it will be impossible to sit on the toilet seat. Unless you sit sideways. I'm 5'5" and 56Kg and even I found it hard. - the lock to the apartment is messed up and is a bit difficult to open. They did tell us this when we checked in. - the hot water ran out in the last day as its heated with a gas canister. One day of cold water. - there's a splinter sticking out on the floorboord near the bathroom. It jammed in to my foot and now there's a piece of skin missing. - I had scheduled my check-in for 5pm but they were not there and told me I had asked for 5.30. Which is incorrect. I did show them my email confirmation and the guy said it might be a system issue. Please get a confirmation for your check-in time, coz there's nowhere to wait depending on the time of day.
