Ines was a wonderful host and her suggestions of things to see and places to eat in alfama was incredibly helpful. She is quick to answer and was very gracious during my stay The location of her apartment was amazing. Walking distance (about 7 min) to the train station, metro, and bus stops. Lots of things nearby to see including a very cute park with great views of the ocean and the National Pantheon. The apartment is on the top of a very steep steeet from the santa apolonia station. Be prepared but then again that is just Lisbon. The place is very cute and small and it is great for solo travelers or couples. It is on the first floor and the window opens to the street but it is not a busy street. I did not find the noise bothersome. Ines provided some ear plugs just in case. Would definitely recommend Ines and her place for your stay in Lisbon.
