The apartment was fantastic, clean and spacious it has everything you need in the kitchen. The metro is right outside, Bolhao market is opposite and bars, shops and restaurants just a very short walk away. Despite being so near everything it was very quiet, excellent sound proofing so we slept well too! We would thoroughly recommend this apartment.
