The apartment is in a very good location in Alfama. Easy to get everywhere, and you really get to soak in the cobble stones, narrow streets, fado, and history of Lisboa. I was super impressed by Elsa's responsiveness - on the first night, the cot was broken when we arrived and Elsa had a new one delivered and set up the next day. I mentioned that the bathroom ceiling and shower were full of mold. The next day, the cleaners came and bleached everything away and re-caulk the shower. Couple of tips: the apartment is on the 2nd floor, no elevator, just in case you have mobility issues. We stayed over NYE, so it was a bit cold and we did end up using both of the space heaters. We couldn't take showers at the same time, you have to wait a few minutes in between showers for the hot water to regenerate. We couldn't have the dish washer and washing machine on at the same time, the power went off a couple of times because of that. Lastly, because of the bar/nightlife in Alfama, the bedroom closer to the street definitely get street noise, and cruise ship fog horn, so if you're a light sleeper, you want to take the bedroom in the back.
