Maria's place was pleasant and cozy with a wonderful view and an unbeatable location. We appreciated it during our week-long stay in Alfama, Lisbon's oldest neighborhood that has delightfully narrow streets, an excellent culinary scene and one of the country's cultural treasures: Fado.
As a quick aside, there are smokers that live in the floor below. We didn't necessarily have an issue with the smell coming into the stay, but it could cause issues for those who are especially sensitive to the emission.
