It's always possible to find somewhere central and all together accommodating to stay in a City such as Lisbon, however, a place like Sam and Nuno's is truly a treasure ( ! ) of a find.
Beyond standard, non-space furniture, this 4th floor apartment is a *real home: eclectic second hand furniture, a good working stove, a lovely melange of decor and - hey we are after all visiting - some tour guides in a bowl.
I personally appreciated the shades in the window (allowing for better sleep - something I did not find in other temporary homes ...)
The ups and downs of the Hilly Alfama neighbourhood are charming but it can generally be confusing to get around if you don't know the area too well yet, nevertheless: Sam, Nuno and a friendly neighbour that I met through them were always there to help when it came to finding my way.
I can only hope other travellers can find this sweet spot in their Journey to and throughout Portugal.
