I had a wonderful time at Maria José's appartment . Home away from home is a good description. Location is perfect ; 10 minutes from the Subway. (Metro Linha Vermelha)), very easy walking distance to Central place ( Praça do comercio) and Baixa and Castelo and so many other places. 15 minutes to supermarket (pingo doce). Cute and funky and well equiped. Very helpfull owner. You can resolve noise problem ( there is construction everywhere in Alfama and people are " near" sometimes) by sleeping in the back bedroom (closing the doors between the rooms). I did spend 16 nights there with my boyfriend and was so pleased. Thank you Maria José.
