We were very happy with with the apartment. Jose was very responsive to us, and even offered to make a special trip and show me how to work the coffee maker when I couldn't figure it out. A few previous reviews have mentioned noise issues - it is on a street with bars and restaurants, but if we closed the windows and closed the doors that lead back to the bedroom, we didn't hear a thing. As others have mentioned, the bathroom is a little small, and if you are tall, you need to be careful not to bang your head. The location in Alfama is great, so many restaurants and bars to walk to, and very conveniently located within walking distance of the Santa Apolonia station for easy access to trains and metro.
