Nestled in a quiet residential street in Príncipe Real, Afterglow is a great option for visitors wanting to be somewhere central but with a peaceful, calm atmosphere.

The apartment is comfortable and it’s in great condition, making it a lovely place to come back to after a long day of pounding the pavement.
