Charming River View Loft

Esther, thanks for your excellent property management support, including your ideas and recommendations! We will come again.

We enjoyed having the windows open and the breezes flowing through the apartment.

The location is excellent and the property manager extremely helpful and responsive. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to shop, visit restaurants, go to Fado and tour Alfama. The amazing Time Out food court is only a few minutes away by foot. There are small mercados with affordable wine in the neighbourhood -- you certainly won't need a car to get your basic necessities. From the airport, the apartment was only an 8 euro Uber ride, which was a good value considering the distance (over 7 kilometres through the city). The apartment is charming -- lots of character, and with a great view of the river and bridge. Although there were only two of us travelling together, I could easily imagine a group of five or six good friends fitting into the flat. There is a dishwasher, a washing machine, and a clothesline; a Nespresso coffee maker and a large refrigerator; an oven, a stove, and a microwave that might also do convection. The Internet was strong and connected to 5 G and lower devices. I would caution those with mobility issues that there are many stairs (over 70) to climb in order to reach the flat. That said, I am over sixty and managed fine. In fact, I lost weight on my vacation, which I partially attribute to the daily climb. Another cautionary note is that the apartment can get noisy at night, as it is just a stone's throw from Pink Street. If you plan to go out and enjoy yourself at night, this will be a bonus. If you plan for an early bedtime, sleep in the master bedroom, which is quiet, or bring earplugs. One other note of caution is that there is construction taking place directly across the street. At times during the day, I imagine, it could get noisy. It wasn't an issue for me, as I was out every day. Also, the construction crew appeared to wait until at least 8 am to start their work. From my perspective, the cost of the rental was quite reasonable for what it offered, so I didn't mind putting up with a bit of hammering over a late breakfast. Finally, be patient with the door to the flat. It uses an ancient skeleton key, which takes some time to master. My daughter and I perfected our technique by the end of the week. Pushing in while turning the key halfway appears to be the secret. Overall, I would stay there again without hesitation.

This apartment was a terrific location, close to the ferry,subway trams,& trolley . Local restaurants were excellent. Apartment was large and comfortable with fully equipped kitchen. Beautiful views of the Tagus river. We had a wonderful time here. Esther our host was very eager to help with anything we needed and went out of her way to make us feel at home. Much better than a hotel! We recommend this apartment totally. We will be back. Obrigado Esther!

We had a wonderful stay at Esthers apartment. It was unique and beautiful and the view was excellent! You can see the bridge from the bedroom window. Make sure you view it at night. It was clean and well stocked. The location is in the Chiado district so it was close to shopping, sites, buses, taxis, and the train. What made this stay great was the communication with Esther. She made our stay feel welcoming and that she actually cared about our stay and time in Lisbon. The apartment is right next to Pink street! So it was loud at night with all the young people singing and partying. The noise didn't bother us, and they were gone by midnight. The only con to the apartment was the bed squeaked very loudly at every move. I would recommend this apartment when you visit Lisbon!! THANK YOU Esther.

We had a wonderful stay. Esther was there to greet us and very welcoming and friendly . We had everything we needed. The apt was just as the photos and convenient to everything we wanted to do in Lisbon. Have no hesitation recommending it.

This apartment is in the perfect location for exploring Lisbon. Everything including the Alfama is within walking distance. Great wine shop just a few doors up Alacrim. The restaurant next door kept tempting us. The Mercado de Ribeira is a couple of blocks away with fresh fruit, vegetables, cheeses, bread, fish, etc. Not to mention all the fabulous food kitchens with gourmet options. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking in. The bedrooms are cozy and the beds comfortable. The shower is great! All in all, the perfect place to stay!!!

We had a great time in this appartment it is in an ideal position with a gorgeous little balcony terrace with a view over the river. Apartment is ideally situated as you can walk practally everywhere, loads of nice bars restaurants and a couple of little supermarkets all close by. Ester and Edna made us most welcome left us a bottle of lovely Portuguese wine and loads of information maps guides etc and her phone number. The apartment is very light it has air conditioning toaster coffee maker microwave and lots more Many thanks for an amazing holiday and we will come back.

We just spent a week in the lovely Chiado Terrace apartment. It was very clean and comfortable, and Esther was wonderful to work with. The location is perfect for exploring Lisbon - within walking distance of everything, or, if you prefer, a 5 minute walk to the metro, ferry, and train stations.

We stayed for 10 days at this cosy apartment, and we spend Christmas and New year's eve with our family. The apartment is absolutely wonderful, very cleaned and well equipped to cook and perfectly located in one of the best suburb of Lisbon not to mention a nice and small terrace overlooking the Tagus. Esther is very helpful and organized and ready to help when ever needed. She actually was such lovely with us that she even booked some train tickets for us and make great recommendations for restaurants. We will definitely highly recommend this apartment to friends and if we ever come back to Lisbon, we will go back to this lovely place.
