António’s place is bang in the middle of Alfama, a stone's throw from Portas do Sol. The flat's small and quaint with big wooden doors, which open up into the main road, from which the tram rides on a regular (and noisy) basis. You can almost touch the tram, in fact, that's how close it rides by the window (very Instagram). Perhaps not the best place for those who like peace and tranquility; in addition to the tram, there is a lot of local activity, with folk constantly passing by at all hours (into the night and early morning) and chatting noisily right below the balcony and by the main door. It goes without saying that if you have a dislike of steep and cobbled streets, Alfama isn't for you, but then maybe Lisbon in general wouldn't be for you if this is the case! The flat is perfect if you're just looking for a place to crash after a day of sightseeing and food, as it's not geared for cooking (it only has a portable electric hob I couldn't even work out how to use). There's a kettle, though, and plenty of lovely tea to sustain you through a relaxed evening watching TV (EN, FR, ES and DE channels as well as PR, obvs), if that's what you're looking for. All in all, a lovely place in an enviable location.
