The apartment looks exactly like it was described in the website. Upon arrival, most household items are fully stocked, including toilet paper, kitchen paper, linen, detergent and tableware. The broadband Wi-Fi is incredibly fast.

It is located the not-so-toursity part of Alfama, where there are cosy restaurants, convenience stores and Fado places nearby. It is lively during the day and tranquil during the night, which is excellent. The stop for Tram 28E is just minutes away from the apartment, making travelling to Chiado and Baxia easy.

I got the keys from the host's friend, but never got to meet the host himself. He responded to my comments quick and tried his best to ensure my stay would be a comfortable one. All in all, it has been an agreeable experience.
