Filipa's apartment is a comfortable place in a terrific location, right in the heart of the Alfama. There is a nice view of the water and sunset from the upstairs windows and we enjoyed that. The beds are comfortable although the bedroom layout is a little funky because you have to walk through the master bedroom area to get to the kitchen / living room area. The kitchen is small but well-equipped although there is no microwave. This lack of privacy was not an issue for us, but if you are looking for privacy this might be a problem. Filipa is a great host - she spent a lot of time with us helping us find our way around the area, giving suggestions for places to go in the city which was very helpful. I would recommend this place and would stay there again.
