After the initial confusion of getting to Elsa’s because Uber does not drive into all parts of Alfama - where as a taxi could - I found that her place was perfect for me. Her place was well done, had everything that was needed, shower was excellent and there were multiple references available - in multiple languages too - that provided information on a myriad of opportunities to explore Lisbon and beyond.
I especially loved the convenience of the location, in the heart of Alfama. Historic and beautiful with its confusion of alleyways that are delightful to explore, you eventually learn how to navigate through it. The people make it even more special from the excellent food to the mesmerizing Fado, graciously sharing life in Alfama with you. I highly recommend staying here, especially if you enjoy experiencing the richness of another place, the people and the culture.
