Beautiful little apartment adjacent to many tourist activities and in a beautiful old neighborhood.
However, a few heads up:
- Alfama *is* very tourist-filled, and can get pretty noisy with people walking past. This is mostly a problem in daytime, rarely at night. We found that shutting windows and turning on a/c pretty much silenced the noise — so no real issue!
- Only serious complaint we had was somewhat slow internet — again not an issue if you aren’t spending time at the house, but be aware if this is important to you.
- Lastly, this area and apartment are not ideal for anyone with mobility challenges, as it is extremely hilly, and the space itself has very cute, but very narrow spiral stairs.
All that said, we loved the convenience of the location, the views, and the patio area. Gorgeous space!
