This apartment was super well appointed and comfy. The location was great in the Alfama district, close to Fado, shopping and restaurants. The front stairs are very steep and narrow and there is no light at the top of the stairs, making it potentially dangerous.
The walls are quite thin, especially in the bedroom. Sleeping in the living room on the futon might be a better option if you are a light sleeper. On our first night, we received a note written on a napkin from the downstairs neighbor informing us that we be aware the walls are thin and to keep it down. We thought it was very unreasonable and rude because we were not playing music nor being loud. We also were alarmed when the doorbell rang several times in the middle of the night and someone knocked on our door twice during the second night of our stay.
The terrace is beautiful and welcoming. The AC in the bedroom works very well, because the apartment got quite warm. We also loved the washer, although there is no dryer our clothes dried in no time.
We’d definitely stay here again!!
