Lovely little apartment in the heart of the Alfama, 2 minute walk to #28 Tram stop and the Miradouro de São Vicente. Apartment is one flight up, convenient with luggage; Clean, charming, well-equipped w/kitchen & laundry. Clean modern bathroom w/tiny shower. Comfy firm bed w/gorgeous view up the hill. Renovations are currently underway on property across the courtyard, and workmen switch on the generator at 8am sharp, quit at 5. The bells of the church ring twice every half hour. The neighborhood is much quieter than Baixa or Bairro Alto. Most restaurants and taverns close down by 10 - 11pm. We were lucky to arrive during a festival in the Alfama where, each night, neighborhood associations offered grilled sardines, pork steak sandwiches, and sangria at temporary outdoor bistros. Utterly charming, authentic local feel. Jorge is very pleasant and is a kind, attentive host. We would definitely stay here again.
