We had an amazing stay at this apartment; Simone's amazing hospitality, the location in Alfama, and the balcony views are just a few of the reasons why you must stay here if you are planning a trip to Lisbon.
Simone went out of her way to pick us up from the car rental station in Lisbon and drove us to the apartment to help us get settled in person, which was very sweet of her and unexpected. Simone is full of life and we had a great conversation en route to the apartment; even though we've lived in Lisbon before, she provided us with some fantastic recommendations and left a useful list for reference at the apartment, as well as two timeout magazines. Simone also picked up some fresh fruit and a welcome bottle of wine which was a really nice touch. Simone stayed in touch with us during our stay to answer our questions and messaged us on a few occasions when she thought of interesting things we could do. It was clear that she wanted us to make the most out of our stay - I have never experienced this kind of personalised service before on air b n b.
As for the apartment, it's cosy, comfortable, newly renovated, clean and well equipped with everything we needed (coffee, tea, modern bathroom and cool interior design) There are three little balconies, so take your pick as they all have nice views! The location is in the heart of Alfama which is a great spot, centrally located from which it is easy to get around.
