The location of the apartment is great - in the middle of Alfama next to Tapas and Fado bars. We fell in love with this old neighborhood and its cobbled stones streets and narrow houses right when we arrived. Especially in the evening when all the restaurants and bars are full with people enjoying good food and listening to some Fado musician the atmosphere is amazing. Strolling around Alfama can get pretty sporty due to the cobble stone and the gradient so leave your high heels at home.
