This apartment is as adorable as pictures, and is perfectly located in Alfama, just a few steps from the 28E trolley and all the sights Lisbon has to offer. There’s a wonderful tapas restaurant two doors down called Vosso Lisboa with live music on the weekends.
The apartment has everything you’ll need for your stay, although there’s so much to see and do in Lisbon that I doubt you’ll do more there than sleep. If you have mobility issues, you might have some difficulty; the apartment is on the 3rd floor, and the second set of steps are quite steep with no handrail.
It’s a lovely old building (it’s Alfama!) with a lot of charm. The walls are thin, though, so if you have loud or heavy-walking neighbors, you’ll hear them. It wasn’t enough to bother me, but if you’re a light sleeper, keep that in mind.
Patricia was super responsive and accommodating, and I really couldn’t have asked for a better first-time experience in Lisbon. Can’t wait to go back!
