Ascensor da Bica - Lisbon Serviced Apartments

Very comfortable and excellent location. Very good. Would stay again.

The apartment and building was good, expect that a tram ran from very early morning below the building making a good nights sleep impossible. It was a mistake staying in the old part of Lisbon as every corner had non Portuguese trying to sell drugs. It was everywhere and quite intimidating.

We were visiting the Nos Alive music festival at Alges, and the apartment was in an ideal location for this with trains running all day and most of the night to get there and back. All the most important things were covered: very comfortable bed, excellent high-pressure rainfall walk-in shower, efficient a/c which wasn't too noisy, roomy fridge, easy-to-use safe and plenty of clothes storage. The location is very close to trams, funicular, metro and suburban mainline station, plus a couple of food shops including a larger supermarket all within a few mins walk. Very easy access to pink street and Barrio Alto for bars, nightlife, a very good, welcoming sports bar nearby too. Plenty of local independent restaurants and cafes, plus a huge and popular food court close by. Daily maid service to make up the room was a nice bonus. Lockers for left luggage at 1E, perfect. For a few days stay for a festival the apartment was good and we would stay again. On the down side there was very little natural light - just one small window in the whole place which gave onto the street so people could look in if the curtains were open. While the bathroom was enormous, the kitchen was absolutely tiny with no prepping space at all: fine if you just want to pick up coffee and refrigerate a bit of fruit or snacks but would have been useless if you wanted to prep any actual meals. As others have mentioned, unpleasant graffiti seems to be a characteristic of this part of Lisbon, so expect that.

Was admittedly a little tricky due to the nature of the streets. Even the uber driver with gps couldnt get right to it. Walking in though it was easy to get to. It is in a bit of a chaotic area but is in a perfect location to explore the different neighborhoods on foot. Very clean and comfortable apartment. Also very easy to check in. They simply emailed me the door codes 2 days before I arrived and it couldnt be easier to get in. If I ever decide to go back to Lisbon I would check this place out again

It was my second stay at this apartment and I went back because mg first experience with this apartment was okay. It's located at the centre of the city, close to time out market and the water front. The place is relatively clean although you would occasionally find some hairs on bedsheets. Check-in and check-outs are easy and there is AC in the room. However, I would avoid this place during the month of June as there is a music festival going on RIGHT IN FRONT OF apartment. They sing until midnight and it is extremely noisy. It will start from around 6 pm in the evening and there is no way you can rest in your room. It sounded like someone was singing with a microphone by your ear. So, unless you plan to stay outside until midnight, it will not be a pleasant stay. I called the owner to see if they can change the room for me, but they got mad at me saying that its none of their business and I should call a police on my own. So, that wasn't helpful at all.
