Wonderful apartment in a gorgeous location in Lisbon's old Alfama neighborhood! This apartment is wonderfully designed in terms of both function and aesthetics. Plenty of windows to let in great natural light, breezes, and views. Spa-like bathroom with marble surfaces. Tiny but functional kitchen with lots of extras like cooking oil, spices, Nespresso machine and pods, wine opener, etc. Gorgeous and comfortable living room, plenty of books and magazines to browse through. I absolutely loved having the tiny terrace up on the roof to sit on mornings with coffee and nights with a glass of wine. We were met by Raquel to check us in to the apartment, and she was very responsive with communication during our stay. Two things I would note for potential guests. One, the stairs both to the apartment itself and then up to the sleeping loft are quite steep--this was not a problem for us, but if you have limited mobility or balance, please be aware. The other is that, as clearly stated in the listing, this space does not have air conditioning, so perhaps be mindful of time of year. We took a chance booking in August knowing there was no air conditioning, relying on average temperature forecasts, and then unfortunately were met with a record heatwave during our stay. There is a fan in the apartment, but temperatures were so high that it never really cooled down at night. I still recommend Joao's apartment 100% despite this--I imagine it is a complete oasis when Europe is not locked into a heat wave. I would love to stay here again someday.
