Ema's place is spacious and just right for a family of 6. It is located in the Alfama district where it is very steep and cobblestones so if have older person with you make sure they can walk. There are nice bakeries and pastry stops a few blocks up and some small quaint restaurants. Tuk tuks are the best mode of transportation in this area and there are plenty just outside Ema's place next to the church and also a tram stop next to her place. I would just hope the company that manages/oversees the place would be a bit more proactive with requests submitted and not having to call them daily to remind them.
Overall nice holiday home for airbnb.
