This is a nice apartment with an amazing view of the river. The location is in a narrow and quiet Alfama street, close to many of the historic sights and viewpoints. There are also many small fado restaurants just around the corner. The stairway in this building is quite steep, and has not been modernized like the apartment itself. The apartment is not soundproof, so if you are a light sleeper, you will notice if people upstairs walk around in their apartment. Hugo is a very flexible and hands-on host, who is easy to communicate with.
