Rui's apartment is located atop (5th floor, no elevator) a very pretty old house in one of the most beautiful squares in Alfama. There are some great cafes just outside the door, and gorgeous park. The apartment faces toward the back, so to get the image of the river shown in the picture, one needs to lean a bit out of the window, but the apartment is nicely decorated and well equipped overall (washing machine, kettle, pans & pots, coffee machine - no capsules though). The walls are thin enough so one can hear the neighboring airbnb apartment, but that was no real disturbance. We had some hickup with the checkin, the cleaners still had to gain access to the apartment when we arrived, which I suspect has to do with somewhat unclear communication between the host and the previous guests. During our stay, communication was sometimes prompt (e.g., self-checkin instructions, which didn't work however because the keys weren't ready yet), but sometimes less so (both for checkin and checkout), causing some friction. We had a great time overall though, just needed some patience at the beginning.
