I spend 4 fantastic days in Sofia Ribeiros apartment in Alfama, Lisbon. Arriving friday night I was met by the breathtaking view from the balcony facing the river. And as I opened the windows I could hear faint Fado music being played live in the very nearby restaurants. Everything is very nearby, neighbors very friendly and helpfull. And it is also a quiet and private place where families live with children etc. During my stay I both worked a bit while enjoying the view, and I went on daily tours around the city to see museums and sights. I can only recommend this apartment - family friendly but also affordable and perfect for one or two couples. I am definitely going back to Lisbon and this Alfama apartment! Best Karin
