This apartment was the KEY to our stay in Lisbon. Located right in the heart of the Alfama neighbourhood the beautiful sounds of Fado drift right into your windows at night. Those same windows provide a glorious view of the Tagus (including any crusie ships that may be docked there) and intimate views of daily life in the Alfama. Yes, there are stairs to get up to the apartment, and some of the ceilings are a bit low in places but that's part of the charm in staying in an apartment that is so old and has so much history. Sergio was a gracious and active host who even drove us and our bags right to the apartment (seeing him navigate his car through the tiny streets was quite the thrill). He also provided us with a free wireless hotspot and tons of reccomendations throughout the area, and even helped us personally plan our day trip to Sintra and Cascais! The apartment was clean, cosy and comfortable and was well within walking distance to everything we wanted to do in Lisbon. We did not take a single taxi our whole trip! I wholeheartedly recommend staying at Alfama Linda if you ever get the chance!
