The apartment pulls off something very rare: Although it has to fit into the confines of Alfama, and thereby does not have much space, the flat is very light and feels open and spacious. If you are alone, but want to be in the old part of the city, this is a good choice. The kitchen had all you need to cook supper, and Nuno was quick to answer any questions I had and was kind. The alley it is in picturesque and not too noisy at night.
