Maria Rita is a great and careful host. She knows the inside outs of Lisbon and welcomed us with a lot of enthusiasm and even before the official check in time. She lives right upstairs in the same building, so communication was great both before and during our stay. The apartment is perfect for a group and to explore the city center and the precious neighborhood of Alfama. Despite the heat wave, the apartment was not too hot. With the windows open at night, however, it may be a little noisy as there is a bar right underneath. Amazing pasteis de Nata few minutes away and everything you need to cook, or enjoy an outdoor breakfast or an aperitivo on the terrace.
