The apartment itself is great, and the location of the apartment in Alfama is also great. Let me explain why we have scored the location as terrible. We had a substantial problem during our 10 night stay with noise from the bar immediately below the apartment. My understanding is that legal action is being taken to stop this noise so hopefully the problem will be solved very soon and more recent reviews will no longer mention this as an issue. The bar has late opening until 2am on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and the music is very loud up until that time. One night so incredibly loud that it actually made the walls of the apartment shake. Certainly sleeping was almost impossible. After each of the 5 late night openings we experienced a large noisy crowd stayed around outside until 3-4am. This was our only issue with the apartment, everything else was 10/10. But, sadly, with this bar operating in the way it was during our stay it’s impossible to recommend this apartment.
