Our wonderful experience began with Maggie's kind offer to pick us up upon our arrival at the train statin. Right away, it was clear that Maggie loves hosting, and that it suits her endearingly cheerful personality. From the train station, she drove us to the apartment (actually, to a few hundred meters from the apartment, as the rest of the way must be traversed on foot through the tremendously charming narrow passages of Alfama) while offering us a great many (almost too many!) suggestions for things to see and do in Lisbon and other nearby places. The apartment itself is very small, as pictured, but very clean and well appointed. The location is excellent, right in the heart of the Alfama district, which is full of tiny restaurants and bars, Fado and otherwise. The apartment is very close to the Castelo and within reasonable walking distance of many of the main neighbourhoods, like Baixa, and even Bairo Alto is only about 15 minutes away. The only times we bothered with public transit were when we went to Sintra, when we went to Belem, and when we finally took the metro to the airport at the end of our stay. A very good experience overall and certainly recommended!
