what a fantastic stay! rute was a lovely host and even picked us up from the airport. the apartment is in a tremendous location right in the heart of alfama - wouldn't change it for any other place in lisbon. the atmosphere in the morning with all the locals doing their grocery shopping is priceless. otherwise the apartment was in great shape and featured everything you need. what i loved most was the little balcony with views of the church, where we took our breakfast every morning. shops, restaurant, fantastic miradors and everything else is just around the corner - and as lisbon is pretty compact, you can walk everywhere from the apartment. thanks a lot rute!
