Perfect location if one wants to explore the old town, old buildings, nice small steepy streets, local restaurants, pubs, gift shops and the most important thing - local life. Walking distance to almost all the major tourist attractions. We didn't even use any public transportation during our staying in Lisboa, except for Tram 28. Walking distance to tram/train stations when we visited Belem or Sintra. The newly renovated apartment is spacious, well equipped and very clean. The nice apartment is located in central Alfama, probably the oldest part in Lisboa. Linving there, we immediately melted into vivid local life, which is exactly what we wanted to experience in the nice city with history. Vanessa, the very helpful and friendly host, recommended a lot of local foods and things to do, even helped us reserving a table for Christmas Eve in a nice restaurant. If one wants to explore typical and local Lisbon, wants to see the beauty of the city in day and night, Vanessa's nice apartment is a place we can recommend when man stays in Lisbon.
