We had a great 4 night stay. The apartment is in the Alfama district which does have a LOT of hills and stairs, but so does all of Lisbon! The stairs to the apartment are steep and skinny, as well. But the apartment is wonderful when you arrive. It feels like a home and you feel like you have space to spread out. The washing machine was great, there is a clothes line to dry. We really liked the apartment and Monica was helpful with suggestions!
