A stay across the river Tejo
I recommend this property and location since it gives you an alternate experience of Lisbon:
- taking the ferry back and forth, available every 20
minutes, puts you on the water, looking back at the city. The ferry arrives very close to the old part of Lisbon.
- this is not a tourist destination, your fellow passengers and neighbours are Portuguese people, the neighborhood is safe
- the apartment is modern, the building was very quiet, it’s a little walk up a hill, but it’s a lovely place to stay! Elsa was quite responsive
- we drove in to Lisbon and used the ferry parking for 5 euros a day; did not drive in Lisbon
- along the embankment is a walk past the abandoned dock buildings, but is an exhibition studio for graffiti artists, it leads to the public elevator up the cliff side to the Christ statue; good exploration if you can figure out the route!! I ran out of time but enjoyed the exploration!
- great photographic potential looking at the graffiti or looking across the river to Lisbon
- the apartment is a great home stay!
