Casas Da Baixa - Lighthouse Apartments

I picked Casa de Baixa to stay during our trip to Lisbon from many others based on its location and pictures. When we reached there from the airport, it seemed to be a really narrow lane, and I was a little disappointed. I was also nervous because of the code one needed to punch in to get access. All my doubts were put to rest subsequently. The room was extremely spacious and comfortable, modern, and updated. Especially for Europe where having sizeable rooms is rare, this one is really large. It is in fact a stone’s throw from several Lisbon attractions and restaurants (very reasonably priced), so it is a perfect location. Over the weekend nights when its party time, it does get quite raucous, and I had trouble sleeping despite a long day until I got used to the noise. If you keep a rental car, it could be challenging finding parking space in the vicinity. Taxis even use the sidewalks to drive as the roads are so narrow and congested

Great location. It is a narrow 9-storey building renovated for small apartments. So, on the website, you see images of some selected apartments, and you probably will get another one. The owner is greedy—the service is limited. They promise fresh linen and towels once every 5 days, but they did not change during our 7-day stay. The kitchenette and bathroom equipment are okay. Communication with management is very limited, difficult to get human contact. They provide in advance only short information e-mails

“Very central”

Big airy room. Comfortable beds. A kettle would have been nice but otherwise quite well equipped. The restaurant across the road is recommended for food and friendliness. Lots of places to walk to from the apartment and metro and trains all near.

We spent one night in the clean modern central apartment. In the centre of the city we rented a studio apartment for 2 persons. We made arrangements via internet and were given the entrance codes via interned. We did not meet any staff while staying there. The single apartment, was large, modern, clean and had a great bathroom. Seating for 4 persons with an equiped kitchen and table for 4. Excellent restaurants in the vacinity and easy walk to the shops and water front.
