From start to finish, Marisa could not have been a better host. She picked us up from the airport, showed us around the area from the car on the way home, and led us through her beautiful, spacious home. She even diligently answered any questions we had right away and gave us advice.
The apartment is perfectly located, situated in a quiet square in the charming neighborhood of Alfama, right at the foot of Castelo de São Jorge and right near the famous Tram 28. The apartment has lots of room: a large comfy bed, a big couch in the living room, a nice kitchen with everything you need if you decide to cook at home, and a tiny but good bathroom with a shower. Marisa even has a guitar in the apartment, which provided us with hours of entertainment. No complaints at all, except that if you're tall don't forget to duck your head on the way into the bathroom:)
