What a lovely home base for us, with a great view from every room and a nice kitchen. Everything was very clean. Quick and warm, easy communication with the hosts regarding essential apartment-related question. The apartment did seem smaller than the pictures might suggest, but for a couple who is not messy, it was fine. Regarding location: Loved being able to choose between an interesting and often gorgeous walk through Alfama or the down-the-hill train/metro station for access to other parts of Lisbon. The apartment and neighborhood (and city!) require a comfort with stairs and steep hills, going both up and down, but both my partner and I ate natas and drank sangria to our hearts' content and didn't put on any weight. ;-)
