We had a wonderful vacation at Diana's apartment.
Her very vibrant friend Jorge welcomed us and made us feel at home in Alfama.
Diana kindly left us a special bottle of red wine from the local region which was a a very nice gesture.We loved the wine!!!
The area where the apartment is situated is just brilliant,there are
Local restaurants and bars,barbers,clothes shops right outside the
apartment.And of course there are all the Fado music places
To eat and listen to the wonderful voices of the locals (some more talented than others). It's right beside the train stations,you can walk to the river,the main shops and hire scooters/bicycles from local man Jose ( scooter cool).
We loved our time in this neighbourhood and our comfortable sleeps in the gorgeous loft style apartment that Diana has put a lot of love into designing.
Highly recommend staying here if you want a slice of typical Portugese city life.
