A very sweet corner house in Alfama.
This apartment on the second floor has windows that welcome the light of the rising sun - simply fabulous for early risers, photographers and Yoga practitioners! The windows also look onto the river Tejo (a view sometimes obscured by docking cruise liners).
In a relatively compact space, Filipe has fit in a perfectly functional kitchen, a fridge, and even a washing machine! A helpful manual stands on the table and answers much. Filipe is responsive to queries regarding the place and Lisbon.
Please note that the stairs are narrow and steep!! Getting through the doorway with luggage is a dance, but then, that’s Alfama.
A comfy bed, well thought out and well placed amenities, and a great location.
Small/brief sounds on one of the five nights when the bins located below were being cleared, and another brief loud jam by neighbours surprised us, but were taken in the Lisbon spirit and did not last.
Highly recommended.
