Location - so the apartment is in historical neighborhood and close to many attractions, BUT the view from the window is to the dusty construction site and nothing more, it is in the very corner of Alfama, so don’t expect charming old town vibes.
Check in - It was said that the check in starts at 14:00, the host messaged me asking at what time we are planning to arrive, we said 16:00, and when we arrived at almost at 17:00 the door to the apartment was open with trash bags on the stairway and a cleaning lady saying she needs 10 more minutes to finish cleaning, so we were left sitting on the stairs just waiting for her to finish.
Cleanness - the dishes were stained and there was dust.
The doorknob looked broken and you can hear neighbors walking and if they turn on light in the staircase you can see the light coming to your kitchen through the small window, was scary and disturbing the first night.
The design looked very “Pinteresty” but in reality it is just photos taken from the right angle.
The price doesn’t really mach the quality.
