We had a very comfortable stay in the apartment. The elevator was a welcome amenity given the hilly terrain of central Lisbon and the Alfama area in general. We had trouble finding it because the maps in Uber don't realize you cannot drive on the street the apartment is located without special permitting. Hot tip: You'll want to get dropped off near the Se cathedral and walk down the slight hill to access the building, especially if you have luggage.
That said, the apartment is extremely well located. The cathedral, Castello, and some beautiful overlook areas are within a relatively short walk, as is the main shopping and dining in Baixa. We loved the made-to-order passionfruit Caipirinha cocktails at the little bodega/juice bar next door (to the right as you exit the building) -- holy cow were those tasty and refreshing and strong! We brought our 11-month-old son so it was lovely to enjoy those on the veranda overlooking the river after putting the baby to bed. Also enjoyed Pois Cafe for casual nibbles and the seafood stew at Farol de Santa Luzia.
The best place to catch the famous trolley 28 is up near the Estrela park, which is a gorgeous park for adults and children alike. There is a tiny tasca there as well serving traditional and inexpensive fare (just across street from Basilica) called Flor da Estrela. When you catch the trolley at the Estrela stop, you can ride it all the way back to Alfama for 3.50 euro per person.
Anyhow, we had to rely on our friend who lives in Lisbon for recommendations as there didn't appear to be any recommendations provided by the Airbnb host? That would be a nice update, along with complimentary Nespresso pods as there is a Nespresso machine but no pods provided during our visit.
The space itself is well appointed and the complimentary high chair and Pack n Play saved us some packing space for sure, so we found the apartment to be very child friendly. The bed was comfortable and the sunset view can't be beat for the price.
