Pros:
1. the entire alfama area is nothing but hill. As far as alfama goes the location is pretty good. You are close to 28 tram stop and viewpoints. There are many adorable eateries nearby.
2. Host communicates checkin info clearly and proactively
3. Bed was large and comfortable.
4’ quiet and authentic feeling neighborhood
Cons
1. Wet bathroom that also has some smell. Paint chipping.
2. Very small. Don’t expect to do more than sleeping. It was tight for 1 person. It felt more like a room rather than apartment. Bathroom was so cramped that it was a struggle taking seat on toilet because there is a sink in front. You don’t sit… you have to slide in side way.
3 broken amenities like outside blind and bathroom door lock.
4. General uncleanliness that permeates the place. Yes some of it is because the
Building is old. However it’s a viscous cycle that the host can stop with some caring.
