Could not agree more with previous visitors. Elena is a super host and gave us a very warm welcome, a nice bottle of wine and a lot of great ideas and accurate descriptions of what to do in Alfama and surrounding neighborhoods. She deserves the five stars all the way!
The apartment's location doesn't "går av för hackor" as we say in Sweden ( meaning, a pretty awesome good location ). It's close to all important communications you want. Cosy and great restaurants around the corners. Trains to all the cool beaches of Cascais and Estoril for ex. Or other areas of Lisbon for that matter.
The inside of the apartment has a lovely personal feel and got everything you need for a top notch stay. The view from the loft bedroom window and the kitchen is wonderful and makes the wake up and breakfast a relaxed start of the day.
We are so happy to have had the opportunity to stay in this flat and will recommend it to all visiting Alfama.
