The location is great, especially for those who want to explore Alfama thoroughly. The amenities are good. You can cook your own meals if needed. It is very quiet at night so you can get good sleep. The bathroom/shower is tiny and the steps in the building are narrow and steep, so those who are large or heavy, or old and frail, may find it challenging. But Margarida is a great host and she goes out of her way to meet your needs. She makes it a great place for me.
