The flat was located in a great location in Alfama - very close to many historical landmarks, great restaurants and the tram lines. Just be prepared to walk and navigate the many hills of the neighborhood. I enjoyed this, but not everyone might. In the few trips I took around Lisbon by taxi, I found out that not all of them will take you the entire way to the apartment on your return trip due to the apartment's location in a traffic controlled section of the neighborhood close to the Castle. The interior of the flat is comfortable and modern.
