Pros: very clean, tidy and modern apartment. Perfect for one guest or two without a lot of luggage. Super handy to have a small stovetop, pots and dish ware. Wifi worked great, as did the shower. Quiet street.
Cons: 1) this place is very hard to find! Even if you have google maps be sure you print it out large size. Had to finally get a cab. You cannot drive directly to the apartment (road is sans cars) so even a cab has to drop you at the top/bottom and you need to haul your luggage the rest of the way. Not a problem if you are backpacking it or have very light suitcase you can carry for a few blocks up/down steep hill easily. If, however, you have luggage with wheels the cobblestone streets of Alfama WILL destroy it and getting to this place is a pain. I was a single traveler with a small backpack and a travel size wheeled suitcase. After my forays to and from this apartment I am minus a wheel and a half and a least .5 liters of sweat. Once you find the place, it is easy to backtrack and you won't get lost again, however, I will re-emphasize: very hard to find this cozy little place. 2) the door to the apartment has been recently repainted and is super hard to open (from both sides). 3) I found the notation about the mop and bucket on the site a little odd, but it made sense once I got there. The place is very minimal. As there are no closets there is literally nowhere to store the cleaning supplies the owner leaves there. They are thus left out and you will be tempted to find a place to stash them. I used the shower stall.
