    Chiado Home is a beautiful studio. It is a modern apartment set in the middle of a charming older neighborhood. There is a private patio which is shared with one other apartment. The apartment manager made us feel welcome and offered helpful...

    I enjoyed the very central location of the property - it was easy walking distance to most of the central places of interest. The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay.
