Susana's apartment in Alfama is the perfect location from which to see Lisbon. Using the directions she had provided us with we made it to the apartment without any problems. Within minutes of our arrival Susana was there to greet us. She was more than helpful, familiarising us with the workings of everything and advising on places to go eat. I would highly recommend Restaurante Alpendre, R. Augusto Rosa. We ate there on more than one occasion, the food was excellent and staff the same.
The apartment is clean light-filled and very safe. It is true to the photos shown on website. It contained everything we could possibly ask for during our four night stay in the city. Alfama is a very friendly neighbourhood where the locals made us feel right at home. When visiting Lisbon again we know now that this is where we will stay.
