We had a great stay at Maria's apartment. The apartment is beautiful in its simple, elegant rustic decor. It's a nicer looking apartment than you can see in the photos as it has old hardwood floors and fifteen foot ceilings. It's in a great location. The Alfama district is where you need to stay in Lisbon if you like old world charm. And, this apartment is one of the closest in Alfama to the metro station (Terreiro do Paco) and the 15 tram that takes you to Belem Tower and the Monasterio de Jeronimos. As there are throughout Alfama, there are restaurants and fado music options within half a block. Maria was exceptionally generous with her time and suggestions. She met us at the apartment and spoke with us for about 30 minutes when we arrived. Each day of our three day stay she sent recommendations for restaurants, bars, etc. She's a wonderful person. Check-in and check-out was easy. Do yourself a favor and stay here if you come to Lisbon.
