Monica & João’s apartment is an absolute gem. It is nestled in the beautiful Alfama district. We were traveling with our 6 month old son, and João met us near our car and helped us with our luggage. He was part host, part tour guide as we wove through the cobbled streets. He stopped at a local pastelaria and picked us up treats for the apartment. He even carried our enormous luggage up the super steep and narrow staircase up to the apartment. Staples awaited us in the kitchen, such as wine, water, milk, coffee etc. The space is beautifully decorated and very family friendly (once up the stairs). Our son went to bed early, but we were still able to enjoy the sounds of fado as we relaxed on the terrace. We can not recommend this Airbnb enough!
