A stay in Patricia's beautiful apartment will not disappoint. The apartment is as stylish as shown in the photographs and the location is perfect - right by the castle walls as described! The apartment was clean and very modern with all the amenities you need. (the washing machine was really useful as it was very hot during our stay and we had not packed enough summer clothes)! Patricia's welcoming touches were much appreciated. We arrived earlier than check-in so could not gain access to the apartment with the key code ap. However, Patricia arrived really quickly at the apartment to welcome us and help sort out setting up the key codes earlier than planned. Thank you Patricia. The apartment is really comfortable and nice and quiet during the night/early morning. Great after a busy day sight seeing in Lisbon. There are places to eat and drink on your doorstep or the local transport system is easy to use and not too far away.
In the evening we often used Uber to get us into other districts within Lisbon and paid around 3 euros for a trip, which seemed comparable with costs on the public transport system. If not the 737 bus literally stops right outside the castle wall, so you won't have too much climbing in order to get to and from the apartment each day. There are also two lifts that take you from street level to further up to cut out a little climbing. These two lifts are free of charge and operate until 9pm each day. Check out street elevators whilst you are there. There is also a decent supermarket right by one of the lifts.
To sum up the apartment is modern, bright and lovely to stay in. The area of Alfama is perfect and the apartment is well located within it. Patricia is a great host and very helpful. Lisbon is a beautiful city to explore. You will enjoy a stay in this beautiful apartment.
