This apartment was so clean. I felt so safe there. I loved hearing the church bells and neighborhood sounds from the third floor. The lock on the front door was definitely tricky but figured it out after 5 minutes or so. The Portuguese couple below were very helpful even though we couldn't understand each other. Although the shower is small, it worked just fine. Alfama is very easy to get twisted around in, which I did often. I walked most everywhere and was happy to do so.
