Sofia’s place is exceptional in every way. First, it’s in a great location near the cathedral, within a short walk of all of Alfama. There’s easy access to yellow Tram 28 and a Metro station, as well as shops and restaurants. Second, the apartment has been beautifully renovated and upgraded (the photos don’t do it justice), with every conceivable amenity for a guest’s comfort and convenience, including a washer-dryer. The modern kitchen is well equipped, and the bathrooms are so nice you might look for an excuse to take a shower. The building even has an elevator. Third, Sofia is a great host who provides a lot of nice touches. All in all, Sofia’s place was great to come home to every day after walking up and down Lisbon’s hills. Highly recommended.
