My husband and I enjoyed our stay in Alfama. The apartment is a very good size, more than enough for the 2 of us. I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony and looking out over the city. The apartment was extremely quiet. It is in Alfama so you will be walking uphill from Lisbon, but nothing we couldn't handle. We enjoyed getting lost in all the narrow curvy walkways. If you are spending time in Lisbon, Alfama is a must visit.
