Fantastic location, great communication with host, convenient facilities, clean house - all made for a great 2 week stay for us. The house is compact, as can be expected for houses in the Alfama area, but it has everything we needed. Kitchen had all the utensils we needed and had supplies for coffee as well. It was very convenient to have a washer (host also left pods for the washer) as well as heating in the unit. Just steps away, there are some really nice restaurants and also Fado. So easy to get food and there are also plenty of mini markets around to get supplies. The house is super quiet once you’re inside, so getting a good night’s rest is easy too. Both of us also worked from the apartment for part of the day. We loved being able to walk everywhere and also loved checking out the weekly market in Alfama, which is just around the corner from the house.
Overall, a great stay and we would do it again.
