This apartment is the most charming place we have ever seen. It is ideally located in the old neighborhood of Alfama, which gives it tremendous local flavor. If you sleep with the windows open, you'll hear the nearby fado and children playing in the cobblestone streets. We loved the big windows and the amount of daylight coming into the kitchen. We especially enjoying the laundry line hanging outside the window! The apartment was VERY clean and close to the legendary tramway 28, which takes you up and down hilly Lisbon from Graça to Estrela. We rented a car and were able to park the car very close by and drive to beaches for surfing. The exercise walking up the little hill and the steps was welcomed as we loved to reward ourselves with delicious Portuguese wine and cheese at the top!
André was a fantastic host and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic getaway with a touch of adventure and a lot of authenticity!
