Brilliant location with views of the river and rooftops of Alfama. Easy to walk into the city and the main sights especially the castle. Lots of bars and restaurants in the vicinity. João was very helpful showing where everywhere was on the map and day tripsuggestions.
The apartment is on the top floor and the stairs are steep, also the main sleeping area is up steps on a shelf in the room so may not suit everyone. It was also a bit dark. Otherwise the apartment has good facilities and was clean. Good heater/air con.
The streets can be confusing, that's their appeal,head back down to the river or high up to get your bearings. A great area for wandering about.
