This is Rua dos Correeiros, right next to the famous Rua Augusta street in the heart of Lisbon's downtown district, the BaixaA simple indication of this property's location, is the fact that from the windows of the apartment you can see 3 important historic Lisbon monuments: the Elevador de Santa Justa, the ruins of the Carmo Convent, and the majestic São Jorge Castle.
This is the very centre of Lisbo, with many good bars, cafés and restaurants in the surrounding area. From here it is a short walk to the major Rossio and Praça do Comércio squares, and also to the main tourist districts of Alfama, Chiado and Bairro Alto, although the street itself is calm and quiet at night, and your peaceful sleep won't be disturbed.
Just a short walk away, you can find the metro stations of Rossio, Baixa-Chiado and also Terreiro do Paço. There are several tram lines passing by this area, and many different bus stops. A taxi ride from the airport will take less than 30 minutes and the airport bus stops just 5 minutes away.

Beautiful renovated apartment with the charm of the old tourist in the heart of Lisbon (pedestrian street with restaurants). The snack bar open for lunch at the foot of the building is typical and cheap. The apartment is fully equipped and very clean. We rented four days with kids and they had a great time including climbing five floors of the apartment rather steep. You will do everything on foot, by subway or tram! The owner is very friendly, helpful and just a few you avoid tourist traps. He picked us up at the airport and we even sent a pair of shoes that we had left in the apartment! We will return to the off-season to see Lisbon from another day! Thank you Olivier!

Location of the apartment could not be more convenient - it is in the middle of everything important to the Lisbon tourist and close to trams,buses and trains (5 minutes max) for ventures furthur away. The apartment is modern extremely clean and contains everything in the way of appliances and amenties that you could possibly want.Olivier the owner (who speaks very good English)arranged to meet us at the airport, for a simple transfer of the key and put us on the bus which stopped close to the apartment.When my teenage daughter left her IPOD at the appartment, Olivier went to great efforts to return it to us in Canada. We were a party of 3 myself, my wife and a teenage daughter and it was perfect for our needs. If we return to Lisbon at some time in the future we will certainly try to stay at Olivier's apartment.The only thing to watch (which didn't bother us) is the apartment is on the 5th floor and thats an awful lot of stairs if you are not fit.
