If you are lucky enough to see Carla's place available i'd rush to book-- it's a beautiful space in a stunning part of the city. The view out the window in the morning is worth it all--calmly looking over buildings that have stood there for centuries. The location is just INCREDIBLE--you are close to so much in Lisbon but the apartment is tucked away on a small street with no noise at all. Walking home from dinner you hear Fado music wafting out on nearby streets-- and if you wake up early in the AM you have the entire Alfama neighborhood to yourself... including the amazing Tram 28 which is just a 2 min walk from the front door of this place. This was not a negative at all for me as I love walking, but just note the easiest way by far of you getting to the front door is walking-- and it is hilly-- but the hills add to the view and the wonderful feeling of the neighborhood.
