We were met just outside at the property by Carolina, which was helpful, as the apartment is in an apartment building set back from the main road. It is up a flight of steep stairs. Carolina helped us with our luggage. The apartment was charming and clean. One drawback was the limited amount of hot water for showers; enough for one shower, or two very quick showers.

Quiet at night except for the nightly garbage pickup which was not for long. Close to all Alfama experiences. Very narrow steep flight of stairs to the apartment. We were met by a very pleasant hostess who quickly showed us through the apartment. We appreciated the room heaters and extra blankets as it was chilly, being early March. Beds were comfortable enough.

Authentic Portuguese Experience

We greatly enjoyed this flat. It was easy to feel enveloped in the Portuguese culture due to the neat and authentic accommodations that are located near plenty of Portuguese shops and tourism. The hosts’ communication was excellent and they answered all our questions graciously and promptly. This stay was a great find and we would gladly book again!

Cosy, nicely decorated. Well equipped (e.g. dishwasher, washing machine). Quiet location, but still very close to the sights of Alfama. Be aware of the steep stairs from street level up to apartment itself.

Lovely little apartment in heart of Lisbon

The apartment was perfectly placed for our week of exploring the city, surrounded by interesting landmarks, and good restaurants. The apartment itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay for my husband baby daughter and I. Great communication and friendly service from the owners who also organised us an airport transfer and Luis our contact who met us on arrival. We had a lovely stay would highly recommend ****
