Goncalu and Miku’s flat is perfectly located on a little lane in Alfama. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants, and fado bars around, and it is only a moment away from the Miradouro das Portas do Sol. The apartment itself has an incredible view of the water over the Alfama rooftops. It is cozy and perfect for a little getaway. The hosts were also super communicative and full of great information about Lisbon. Unfortunately, the hallway of the building smelled very strongly of cigarette smoke, which seeped into the apartment. Even when aired out with windows and doors open, the stale smell tended to cling to the furnishings and (as the week went on) our clothes and belongings as well.
