Adriana's place is very good for exploring Alfama! It has everything you need in the kitchen and bathroom and is generally very clean. The only problem I had was that there was a weird air vent window (about the size of a brick) at the top of my room which went out into the staircase - made the evenings very noisy (people in the staircase would talk very loudly). Also note that this is like a hostel in a way, it is not Adriana's home. There are two other rooms in the flat.
