We really enjoyed our stay here, especially watching the NYE fireworks from the balcony! This felt like a good place to access the city from and everything you need is at your fingertips, however, it the Alfama area is busy with tourists (like a lot of places in Lisboa) and therefore not so many great restaurants nearby. The design of the apartment is really cute and the view of the river, watching boats come and go against the sunset, was quite wonderful. The beautiful wood floors make it a little noisy from people in the building (including ourselves trying not to bother people below!) but despite the busy area the rooms were quiet. I would recommend this to people traveling to Lisboa for the first time!
