Bring ear plugs!! And an eye mask!! and maybe an air con!! No kidding!!!
It’s in the heart of Alfama so super quaint with all the cobbled alleys you’d expect, restaurants, tourists, and the locals. Problem is it’s soooooooo noisy at night… unbearably noisy. If you close the windows and shutters it’s a bit more quiet but there’s no air so it’s HOT. If you open everything there are lots of lights too. And noise and minimal air. I left and went to a hotel for 2 nights for sleep.
The place is clean… cute, charming even… but the bed is NOT comfortable at all (it’s a Murphy type platform bed) and the pillows are old and uneven.
Bathroom shower is good, lots of hot water, there’s a washer and a kettle. All good. But they didn’t over come the lack of air or sleep for me.
The hostess is lovely!! I think the place really needs to add an air con and some new pillows, and a new mattress.
