Great location and place!

The place was fantastic and the perfect location for us. There were good restaurants and shopping close by and it was easy to find our way around the neighborhood. Ana was fantastic. We arrived in Lisbon way before our check-in time, but since no one was staying in the place prior to our visit, Ana was able to let us check-in early. The place was easily to find, the check-in process was great, and the place was clean. I would definitely recommend the place to anyway one visiting Lisbon.

Amazing property

The apartments and location couldn't have been more perfect for our family of 7. Bodegas and restaurants are within easy walking distance and the Fado museum is the perfect uber pick up spot. The apartment is well equipped, very clean and modern with an old world touch. There is street/people noise but part of the experience. Ana the host was super responsive and very welcoming.

Spectacular Apartment in Alfama

Apartment was well designed and especially enjoyed learning about its renovation (well done!) It was centrally located in Alfama to public transportation, restaurants, markets and bakeries (almost directly across from the apartment for those longing for a morning Ginja and pastel de nata). Close to many of the tourist sites, just a short walk or taxi drive away. Ana was very responsive to any questions we had. Strongly recommend this apartment!!

Great place in Alfama

We had an amazing stay in this apartment, location was terrific for us. The apartment was very clean, great showers, Ana was very helpful and offered a late check-out which was super helpful. The arrangement of the spaces is unusual, in that the rooms are all in one building stacked vertically, with the bottom bedroom at street level and the other two accessed from a separate stair next door on the second and third floors; each bedroom/floor has its own bathroom. The top floor has the communal space and the larger kitchen and roof deck; the lower bedroom has a small patio and a small kitchen.This arrangement worked for us. But could be a challenge for some groups of travelers. Overall it was a great place to stay for a few days in Lisbon!
