Baixa, Lisbon - holiday apartment for rental - ref: 55

Apartment number 55 is located on the 4th floor (no elevator!) of a typical XIX century building constructed against a XV century fortress wall in the Pena district.

Nearby you have all kinds of traditional commerce, and it is a walking distance from Lisbon's historical centre and some of the best sea food restaurants in the city. It is also a short walking distance to the subway and train stations going to the beaches around Cascais.

There are two public car parks 3 minutes walking.

It has an abundance of natural light, and from the window you have an amazing direct view of the castle and its beautiful surrounding.

It is 80m2 and has been completely renovated and remodelled to include:

• one bedroom with double bed (190cm * 140cm);
• one living room with a sofa bed, dining area, satellite TV, DvD player and a hi-fi stereo;
• a mezzanine with a single bed (not very comfortable : a matress on the floor, low ceiling, light in the morning and low intimacy because it is on top of the living room) ;
• a kitchen complete with washing machine, gas oven and stove, microwave and fridge with frozen compartment; This comunicates with the sitting room;
• a bathroom with an ancient renewed bathtub;
• one terrace, built within on the old fortress wall, with an amazing view over the castle S. Jorge, Lisbon's roofs and the river Tejo, where you can sit and relax;

Wireless internet connection available for those who have their own laptop with Wi-Fi compatible equipment.

It has fans, central heating and a fireplace.

Please bare in mind that the walls at the terrace are quite small, being not suitable for small children.

We will welcome you with a bottle of cold “vinho verde”.

You will also find some CDs with Portuguese music to complete your cultural experience.
