Cozy, clean house in quaint Alfama neighborhood. This apartment is approximately a 15 minute walk from the city center; however, it is important to note that the Alfama neighborhood is at a much higher elevation and the walk back is almost entirely uphill with many flights of stairs. Additionally, many taxis will not enter the Alfama neighborhood because of the uphill, narrow winding streets. This is great for some, but at the end of the day we had wished we were closer to the city center.
The house was updated, clean and had everything we needed (including a washer). Wifi was weak and spotty at times. Hosts were nice and dealt with any questions/problems we had immediately.
