Filipe's studio is a great location from which to explore Alfama and the rest of Lisbon. It is in the heart of the historic neighborhood but close to the train station, thus, rail, bus and metro lines.
The apartment is compact but has full amenities and is well kept and clean. The bed is comfortable and the towels are large and thick. Our only request would have been a comfortable chair to lounge but who has time for that when in Lisbon!
Just steps from the suite are shops, cafés, restaurants, and the Fado Museum. One of our favorites for breakfast was Fabrica Pastel Feijao which had wonderful sandwiches and a specialty dessert made of beans - delicious! A special find for dinner and fado was the very local, not touristy restaurant Mesa de Frades which was just steps away. A very special evening was spent here feeling the soul of Portugal.
