Let's start with some background on ourselves; We're globetrotters always looking for a great local experience, visiting a city's places of interest, enjoying the best of local cuisine, etc... . We're a young professional couple traveling with an 18-month old boy at the time of writing, my wife 6-months pregnant of our second one and local temperatures well over 30°C to give us the full experience of what is Lisbon. Traveling light and smart is key here; a baby carrier will enable you to move a lot quicker than a stroller. Don't take my word for it but you'll wanna dump the stroller as soon as you can. Now onto the place itself; This apartment is sublimely located. In the heart of Alfama, within an easy walking distance of the Lisbon's eldest district's sights. The castle is a 5 minutes walk, the cathedral will take about 10minutes. Keep in mind our introduction. The magnificent monastery of São Vicente de Fora is about 10min on foot also. Just these three, will keep you busy for the better part of a day if you like to take your time to discover. A couple of very nice restaurants are also nearby; Quase Café just 50m down the road for a lovely fresh breakfast (no tourist trap), the Cruzes Credo behind the cathedral is the best spot for a decent afternoon cocktail or homemade lemonade. The food there is also quite lovely, however not local cuisine, more hip and trendy dishes but still quite cosy. The best local stuff in the neighborhood (in our humble opinions), you'll find at the gato pardo. It's in the direction of the earlier mentioned monastery. All in all, a good base of operations to discovery the best of what the old district has to offer. Public transport is easily available for those who care. We like walking though and for the larger expeditions, an Uber for instance, will take you to Belém for about 7eur. Do not order one close to sights as prices get inflated. 200 meters away may get you a 30% fare reduction easy. A couple of small local supermarkets will accommodate you for the most urgent needs; fresh produce however is best purchased in a brand/chain supermarket in my opinion. One is within 10 minutes walking distance from the apartment. Regarding the layout, it is quite sizeable for an old urban city apartment. A couple or couple with young infant will be more than comfortable in this particular setting. Its the top floor condo in a three story building, so stairs are to be accounted for. The last flight of stairs is quite steep but a solid hand rail is available. The bedroom is decent-sized and storage for clothing is abundant. The living area is located street side giving view on the urban life below developing and passing by, joyful music, ambient sounds and laughter can be heard from the surrounding squares and terraces, in short it's a window with a view on what...
