Sofia's place is a lovely flat, spacious, light and stylish, with everything needed to feel like a home. The location is excellent, being within easy walking distance of restaurants, pastry cafés, a decent-sized supermarket and, most importantly, the tram 28 route. There are 3 metro stations within a 15 minute walk, and Alfama is also ten minutes walk. The hills are a challenge on returning, but the tram or 735 bus sorted that out. As a neighbourhood, Graça seems quite charming and unpretentious, and we always felt safe.
