We had a lovely and authentic Alfama experience at Gonçalo’s apartment. We initially thought staying in Alfama might mean that we’re far from the more modern downtown area, but to our surprise, it was only a pleasant walk to most places and we hardly even needed transportation. Also, there are a ton of cute places to eat at around the apt.
As for the actual apartment, it was very clean, simple, and had great views from different angles which we enjoyed very much. The steps up to the 3rd floor wasn’t bad at all with my older father.
Thank you Gonçalo!!
