Good location for walking to majority of the sights. Keep in mind it is located at the bottom of Alfama so it is a lot of uphill walking. Wouldn’t recommend with small children as there are a lot of steep stairs up to the apartment itself and it is noisy at night. You can’t sleep with the windows open due to noise and people smoking outside the windows and when it is hot, like it was when we stayed, there is no air-conditioning so it is very hot and uncomfortable with no air flow. Would recommend more so for young travelers that want the very basics.
