Superb location on the eastern edge of Alfama, very convenient to the Santa Apolonia station for train and Metro, and also very convenient for walking around, which we did lots of. The apartment was spotless, and easy to find in the maze of Alfama alleys. We enjoyed the view across rooftops to the Tagus below. Some might find the stairs a problem (poorly lit at night), but we did not. We were there in December, and the multiple heaters in the apartment easily kept us warm; we only had to use one of three. During a 4-night stay, we cooked a couple of meals in the apartment, which had all the needed kitchen basics. The neighborhood is brimming with restaurants within a few blocks, so going out was easy as well.
