We had a wonderful stay in Joana’s apartment! The location was central to many of the locations we wanted to see, and is just below one of the most picturesque viewpoints. (Be sure to use the hidden elevator for convenient and easy access down to the apartment and historic alleyways of Alfama. Otherwise be prepared for a long stair climb! Might not be the best choice if you have difficulty climbing with stairs, as the elevator is only in use until early evening.) The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable, with a great view of the ocean. Bathroom is small, but that’s to be expected in this neighborhood. Joana was quick and attentive to any questions we had, and provided some great recs. Make sure to check out the cute shop of unique and one-of-kind handcrafted ceramics and souvenirs (not your typical tourist shop ) right outside the apartment. Loved our stay and would recommend!
