Alfarm is the perfect place to stay and Nuno met us at the Fado museum and guided us to the apartment. For a couple we found the apartment perfect for our needs, had all we needed for cooking and there's a 'corner shop' nearby, A Lidl about 1.5 miles away and plenty of other food markets, particularly at the train stations. Expect to walk up plenty of steps and hills with all the major sites of the Alfarma district close by, once you find your way around. We can't wait to go back and would not hesitate to stay at Nuno's apartment again. His advice on places to visit was perfect and very helpful. Lisbon is a lovely city, the transport system is excellent. We can not recommend it enough.
