The apartment is everything that Luis expresses in his post. The apartment is clean, well-appointed, extremely comfortable, safe, and ever so cozy. It is in a wonderfully lively section of historic Alfama, yet due to its 4th floor location it easy to feel secluded and cozy. The people in neighbor are friendly and helpful in a truly honest way. There are many restaurants and markets on the street, making most of your needs only a very short walk away from your door. Lisbon's Se Cathedral is about a five minute walk away and the Praca e Commercio within another fifteen minutes away.
As hosts no two people could be more responsive and helpful than Carla and Luis. Always timely with their correspondences wether it pertains to the apartment, or questions you may have about the city, sights and events, or food venues. They and the neighbors make you feel part of the community.
I cannot say enough about the kindness shown by Carla and Luis and they help make your visit enjoyable. Anyone who is lucky enough to rent this apartment will not be disappointed.
