Sofia’s place is a great base to explore Lisbon. It is just doorsteps away from Rossio station, where there is direct train to Sintra. Metro stops are also very close and restaurants with fado just round the corner. The apartment itself is also very spacious with a great additional loft space. The only caveat is the stairs you have to climb but that is the price you pay for a great view of the castle and colorful Alfama district. Definitely would recommend it!
