We found the location and the spaciousness of this apartment to be perfect for our group of 4. It is in the heart of the Alfama, but easily accessible by bus or metro because it is near the cruise ship port. We walked easily to many sites such as the Pantheon and the Praça comerçio, and enjoyed a night of Fado at a restaurant on our street. One afternoon we took tram 28 up through the Alfama, hopped off at the top when we saw the cruise ship terminal, and then wandered our way down through the narrow streets, finding small stair cases, little churches and plazas and quaint restaurants as we navigated our way back to the apartment.
Bathrooms and appliances were clean and modern. The flat is airy and bright with 9 big windows. The host was quick to respond, which we appreciated, especially when we couldn’t find a light in the kitchen. Supplies were minimal and basic.
