We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Alfama district!
Ana & Gonçalo’s place was exactly as discribed and we loved the lively, traditional neighbourhood. We were even treated to some local Fado music in the street with free wine and beer.
The Santa Apolonia train station is very close (150 meters walk away) and Avenida Liberdade is also close. It took us about 20 minutes to stroll there through the interesting streets of Lisbon.
It’s a tiny apartment but well equipped. We were able to cook our own food and had everything we needed. The stairs and hills in Alfama might prove challenging to older folk, so take note.
All in all, we loved it!
