This apartment was perfect for me -- I was on my own for a week, and ended up extending my stay. A great area of Lisboa, Alfama is one of the most romantic neighbourhoods I have ever visited. I loved hearing what was going on outside (Fado echoing through the streets, genuine Portuguese town life), and when I wanted quiet and calm, I could shut the windows to silence. The space was cosy yet bright, well-designed, uncluttered and every element of has been thought through, with both function and taste. If I come back to Lisbon any time soon, I will be disappointed if this apartment is booked out!
