Christina's place is right on what we expected , except being our first time in Lisbon the location was even better than we thought.
Right in the heart of Alfama, stations to get you to Cascais or Sintra are just a short stroll away. Incredible restaurants and bars are literally at your doorstep with more options that you can visit for a night out.
With this, it's worth noting there is some noise at night from the singing across the road. Not a bother to us at all but if you're a light sleeper this might affect you. That being said, i think this is one of the quirks of Lisbon as a whole and this is a small price to pay to be amongst the life of the city.
Check in was easy, we arrived early we were given options to assist us with our baggage until check in. Further, we had a late flight out on our final day and again we were offered assistance with our baggage after check out.
The place itself is lovely and clean, very dark with the shades closed and bright with them open. The bed was really comfortable, my friend and i stayed here together so the 2 single mattress make up was perfect for us. It would be very easy for couples to simply rearrange the blankets for use as a double bed as well. The bathroom had a brilliant shower and the kitchen provided everything we needed.
all in all, i'd absolutely recommend Cristina's place to any couple or friends wishing to visit Lisbon.
