If you want to be in Alfama, but not in the craziness of it, then this apartment, located within steps of the Parthenon, is perfect. It’s very very close to the Santa Apolonia Train Station which has routes to Porto. The surrounding neighborhood has everything that you would need-restaurants, supermarkets, butcher, wine shops, …….The neighborhood is also quiet in the evenings so we slept very well.
We found that our top floor apartment would get nice breezes throughout the day, keeping us very comfortable.
Our hosts, Ana and Pierre, were helpful and accommodating throughout our stay.
Highly recommended.
