This is a lovely apartment in the perfect location, Alfama, the old part of Lisbon near plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops. We had a warm reception by Mafalda, who was very helpful with neighborhood suggestions and even ordered a taxi for me on the last day. Teresa, the owner, was super responsive and sent someone out the same day when we had an issue in the apartment. The place was clean and the water was hot. I think the apartment seems better in person than the pictures show. This location does have many, many stairs and hills, but it was fine for us.
The only negative was the crazy neighbor downstairs! She would scream and rant in Portuguese for ten minutes in the middle of the day or night if we talked for too long. She came upstairs, stood outside our door, and seemed to have a key to the cleaning closet that was attached to the apartment. We were hardly in the apartment and quiet when we were, but she didn’t like us there. The walls and floors are very thin, so any sound travels easily.
Despite the crazy lady, this was a great place and we had a wonderful time!
