Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The area between Avenida and Saldanha is home to a lot of offices, which attracts a young professionals crowd – and with it, a fun mixture of cafes and restaurants that will keep you busy locally. Let's Get Lexical is one of those hazy, sunny homes that will make you feel like you're waking up in a beach house, even though you'll be fifteen minutes away from the Sāo Jorge Castle. The text prints are a matter of personal taste, but if you're not bothered by their relentless inspiration, then you've probably found the one.

Home truths
There are several steps leading to the elevator – those with limited mobility or heavy suitcases take note
The balcony overlooks the interior of the block, meaning the view isn't exactly picturesque
There isn't a lot of space to unpack your bags, and storage space in the bathroom is limited – this home is better suited for a short stay
The only parking nearby is public, and therefore payable
When we tested the wi-fi, it was a bit patchy at times
We spotted a few marks on the walls – this home is due for a repaint

Local guide
About Lapa
The hilly neighbourhood of Lapa favours those with high ambitions. The promise of the most amazing views over the Tejo river drives many visitors into its heights, and few are ever disappointed. The area is mostly upscale (some extravagant architecture is expected), but Lapa has maintained its quiet residential feel in the centre of the city since its aristocratic days. It's the perfect spot for a late afternoon stroll with lots of variety in terms of dining and fado houses with some of the best-renowned spots spread over this tranquil area.
