The place was beautiful - Alfama is the most historic area and we were within reach of great restaurants and interesting local sights. The view from the terrace does not disappoint. The kitchen is well-stocked and a few mini-marts are nearby for some snacks/quick supplies. It's a bit of a hike to get to (taxis can't quite reach it so you have to walk about 2-3 blocks uphill, plus the 3 flights of stairs), so just keep that in mind if you have mobility issues or don't have a strong boyfriend (like I did) to carry your over-packed suitcase :)
