The apartment is beautiful and quaint. We loved staying here. It was immaculate and had everything you may need to during your stay from guide books, spare blankets, an equipped kitchen. Filipa was responsive to answer question and recommend sights.
Couple of things to be aware of, the apartment is up 3 short flights of steep stairs so you need to be careful getting your luggage up/down.
There are building works going on in some days from 8am next door - which is only a problem if you want to lay-in- we were more interested in exploring!
There is a dog downstairs who barks a lot even late at night and the early hours(obviously this is not our hosts fault but something to be aware of).
You can not choose a more fantastic location. Right near the 28 tram stop (at Sao Vincente). Incredibly close to the castle, the main square, 10 mins from the metro/train, 25 mins from the time out market, easy tram to Belem and literally hundreds of beautiful little sights to see in Alfama.
I would love to stay here again. Very highly recommend!
Thanks Filipa.
