Rute's place is in a fantastic location. After exploring a lot of the city, I'm glad we decided to stay where we did. Great restaurants, bars and live music all within a short walking distance. The place gets a little warm and stuffy during the day but the fan provided in the bedroom does a good job of cooling the room off. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to stay in the Alfama neighborhood. The hosts were also very accommodating and responsive.
