Alexandre's apartment was a great base from which to explore Lisbon and the surrounding areas. It's right on the edge of Alfama's pretty, winding streets and a very easy walk from the centre of Lisbon. We checked in with Alexandre's cousin Filipa, who was lovely and provided us with lots of great tips for seeing the city. The apartment itself is a great size for a couple and had everything we needed. It's on a busy street which was noisy all through the night, so not one for light sleepers!
