I highly recommend staying in Alfama for a first visit to Lisbon - it's utterly charming and with easy access to everywhere by walking or public transit. The property was exactly as advertised and Juan was easy to contact and responsive. Bathroom and kitchen are brand new, bed is comfy, and they provided coffee, which is essential. We heard no neighborhood noise and the shop next door gave us plastic cups for "take-away" port one evening. :) Simply a pleasure.
