Great Value for money. The part of the town is great for individualists. The flat is much quieter than we expected. It is the busy Alfama district with the narrow streets (virtually no cars - but also no taxi), the sound of Fado in every corner, one just in front of the door and you can listen to the singers from the living room window. But in the bedroom: no sound. GREAT. Obviously you have to admit to the down sides: narrow cobble stone streets aren't great if you have a lot of luggage, the same is the quite narrow and steep staircase. But hey this is the old town! What else would one expect. As for modern technology, everything is there. Internet, TV, a fully functional and equipped kitchenette. Thus it is a great place to stay with a nice host in the old part of the town.
