This is in a great location in Alfama. Luckily, not too far up the hill from the train station. There is definitely Fado music in the evening, but we loved feeling like we were a part of the street and the activity without being down in it (and paying the cover for the Fado performance)! The apartment was almost silent when all doors were closed so we slept well. The kitchen is a bit tricky to use if you are planning on cooking, but we easily made it work. The place felt a bit smaller and older than it looked in the pictures, but maybe that is the European charm! Great option for a couple who is looking to be in the middle of Alfama!
