Home truths
There are two flights of stairs leading up to the front door here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot, stroller, baby bath and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
Given the home's central spot, parking can be tricky. There are three public parking spots near the apartment. You can also expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
If you're travelling for work, you'll find a dedicated desk here in one of the bedrooms.

Local guide
About Chiado
Chiado is full of old-world charm, and is one of the best-loved parts of Lisbon. Think pastel-hued homes, cobbled streets and plenty of squares to soak up the atmosphere. There’s a slower pace of life in Chiado, which is why it’s so popular with locals. Hop on a tram to take in the open-air ruin of the Camo church, a Gothic masterpiece that was mostly destroyed in an earthquake, or hit the shops – this is one of Lisbon’s best shopping districts, after all.
