Lapa, Portugal Apartment

this small apartment in Lapa, Portugal is located in the most beautiful (renovated) 18th-century building. the tile on the walls is all original and so so pretty!

the wide plank floors are fab- and they seem to be unfinished. i love this look, but wonder how hard they are to clean?? could you walk around in socks/barefoot comfortably? what do you think?

doesn’t Lapa look so charming with it’s cobblestone streets? the apartment is a 10-minute walk from the upscale shops and nightclubs in the Chiado district. i LOVE walkable cities! more at nytimes.com
