Lisbon is a beautiful city, and the Alfama is a rare and wonderful center of it. This apartment is nestled amidst the twisting alleys and stairways, and places you at the center of it. As it looks inward to a courtyard, you get an amazing amount of tranquil privacy. It was great. You're even next to wonderful miradoura (outlook) and a few steps from a great pastelaria. The kitchen is well-equipped to make meals and snacks, and there a few small groceries located conveniently nearby.
Be mindful that the sleeping loft is low-ceilinged. And that the arrangement is two twin beds that can be pushed together, though there is still a slight gap.
And while the place is cozy, it can feel a little too tight if you get stuck inside because of weather or if you feel like to lazing about.
Diogo was a great host. We arrived pretty late and he met us without a hitch. He loves Lisbon and will share is passion for the city with you.
