We had a lovely stay - surrounded by locals in the heart of Alfama district. It is a great location to soak in the sights and sounds of the oldest parts of Lisbon. Also walking distance to all the central attractions. The property is managed by a concierge service, but we were given helpful tips - and three set of keys! Perfect for a group of upto 7. The house is in a decent condition - but cozy. I loved the couch in the common room. The amenities are basic - but you can heat your meal in house, make tea coffee, oven or wash your laundry etc. Why would you stay inside the house in Lisbon though? Great food just round the corner - eat with the locals at the tasty, highly rated and cheap Zé dos Cornos. The kettle was not working, but we used the coffee-maker to boil water. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and much rather have this than a touristy hotel! Lisbon is best when living in a house in the old districts.
