Succeed Campo Pequeno Apartments

This is an excellent apartment, beautifully decorated and very well-equipped. A particular advantage is the decently sized balcony, where you can sit at a table and enjoy your morning coffee or an evening glass/bottle of wine. This convenience is rare in Lisbon – apartments usually have what’s called a Portuguese balcony, a tiny ledge useful only for storing shoes and nothing more. The apartment is clean, bright, and airy, and the changing of bed linens, towels, and cleaning of the apartment is done flawlessly every third day. Just a minute's walk from the apartment is the yellow metro line station. I recommend taking it to the third stop (Marquês de Pombal), and then walking down Avenida da Liberdade to the very center of the city (Praça do Rossio). The avenue has a beautiful promenade. You can also reach the center by taking the yellow line to the first stop, Saldanha, where you can transfer to the red line and ride one stop to Alameda, and from there, take the green line to Rossio station. I recommend buying a 24-hour pass that’s valid for metro, tram, and bus, costing around €7. You can also take the red line in the opposite direction, all the way to Oriente train station or Lisbon airport. If this all sounds too complicated, I suggest using a taxi (I sometimes used Bolt), and a ride to the center costs €5-6. Fifty meters from the apartment is a Continente supermarket, where you can stock up on all the necessities for a good breakfast or simple lunch. For those feeling more ambitious, you can walk 200 meters to the Campo Pequeno shopping center, located beneath the bullfighting arena. The Pingo Doce supermarket there offers a large selection of fresh fish, crabs, shellfish, and various types of fresh meat at affordable prices. In the vicinity of the apartment, there are several small restaurants where you can eat at a reasonable price, and in the old-fashioned business center just 30 meters from the apartment, at 6 Avenida Júlio Dinis, you can get your teeth fixed, repair clothes and phones, get a haircut, buy pastries from a bakery, cigarettes from a tobacco shop, or print a document you might need. This last point is important for those who want to have a paper copy of their boarding pass for the return flight. Considering all of the above, and the fact that the entire neighborhood is peaceful, safe, and pleasant to live in, during my next visit to Lisbon, I will definitely stay in this apartment again. P.S. Finally, a friendly suggestion to the building manager – there should be a hairdryer in the apartment. I know a hairdryer wasn’t listed as part of the apartment’s amenities, but I think it should be part of the standard equipment.

Not sure why the rating for this place is so low, we did enjoy our time there. It's a small hotel, a bit out of the way, but still easy walking distance (10 min or so) from the subway or bus. The room is quite spacious. There is a communal laundry washer and dryer, as well as a well equipped kitchen and dining table. There is no fridge or coffee maker in the room but you can use the one in the kitchen. A few things to note: There's a short flight of stairs to reach the elevator. Be warned if you have heavy luggage. Shower stall is tiny.

Criminal management which did not provide the service they were paid for. The consequence, me and my young family stranded at 1:00 am in the streets. Bogus excuses, no reimbursement, very poor service
