Rui is a lovely person, so helpful and kind and welcoming. Rui left us traditional custard tarts and a bottle of wine which was so thoughtful. He gave us recommendations on where to eat and about the area. The apartment is delightful. It is spacious and clean, lots of books and cd’s, the decor is lovely, it has real character and charm and in the Portuguese style, lovely wooden floors, wall hangings. It has a lovely atmosphere, very peaceful. It is situated on the second floor so quite a few steps to navigate but well worth it! It is situated perfected in Alfama, in the heart of its old cobbled narrow streets full of atmosphere and character. On a night we opened the 2 pairs of French windows and enjoyed listening to the local fado singing from the nearby bars. We had a fabulous time exploring Alfama and other areas of Lisbon. We travelled on a tuk tuk up to the top of Alfama and the views were breathtaking. An amazing 5 night stay in accommodation that is just beautiful. Well recommended, truly lovely place to stay. Thank you Rui.
