Design Sta Marta/ Liberdade Apartment

Please note this apartment is up 4 flights of stairs with no elevator. That was never mentioned in listing and we had a lot of luggages, which made our arrival and departure a full blown CrossFit workout. We only found out about it a few days before when we got our check in instructions. All the towels smelled bad. We had to buy detergent and wash them two cycles to make it better. Communication was amazing and location is good.

We were a little disappointed by the apartment. They had a big water problem (after heavy rain in Lisbon) which made it impossible to use the one room, but also on other places in the apartment was mold and not so clean and fine things. The bathrooms are mostly very small and under the rain dance shower a person of 1,80m cannot stand. The check in/communication process was lame due to suddenly an agency being involved asking to join what’s app group and also asking same questions for more times. A bit bothering and complicated I must say. Early check in/Late check out was offered so we were able to drop our luggage there while doing sightseeing. The staircase is quite narrow when you need to carry luggage up and down. The view from the “kitchen/eating area” is into a terrible looking neighborhood. The other side is very nice though. The entrance door is quite loose and would be easy to break in for someone. Security boxes (Safe) would have helped here. All in all as I said ok for us but could have been also much better!
