The apartment itself was nice and open with a lot of windows in the historical Alfama district. Most places we wanted to go to was within 30-40 min walking distance or 10-15 car ride so the location is pretty convenient. The layout was very welcoming for our group to hang out in and we appreciated the mini heater in the bedrooms.
The shared space is a little dark at night and we couldn’t find the light in the kitchen. The sofa wasn’t super comfortable either. Neither of these were big issues for us since we hung out mostly around the dining room table area.
The key pickup was a little inconvenient since it was not near the airbnb location and was not on the way from airport or the Santa Apolonia train station. Plan accordingly for the commute if you have a group or luggages. We had our friends find a cafe near the airbnb with our luggage while we went to pick the keys up.
