This is quite a compact but very comfortable and well equipped apartment in the heart of Alfama, 10 mins walk from the metro one way, 10 to the main square the other. We appreciated the wine from Bruno :). It is in front of a maze of backstreets with restaurants and Fado singers - avoid the Grande Contarias though, €9.50 for a beer, tiny portions, cost over €100 for 4 people and they would not accept a card payment, so my husband was marched to a cash point! Back to flat - double glazing and shutters meant that it was very quiet at night. My husband as a firefighter would have liked to see smoke alarms as there is one narrow exit only and the tiles in the kitchen and bathroom could do with a deep clean. Other than that, we would highly recommend a stay here.
