Mafalda maintains her cute apartment very well. It is clean, well provided with the things you need and it looks so cosy that we immediately felt at home. Also Mafalda was very kind and helpful, we could contact her when needed. She also makes good suggestions for places to go if you like.
The bed slept well, and the living room is a good place to relax after a busy day. The espresso machine is really good ;), there is music and books.

We think this was the best location to stay in Lisbon: everywhere near the apartment the views ("mirodouros") over the city and river Tejo are stunning, and the street of the apartment is quiet, lovely and full of atmosphere. Old ladies in pijamas are feeding their birds in the street in the morning and we found the same old ladies in the bar around the corner for breakfast and a "bica" (coffee).

Alfama is an area we could stroll around for hours. Nearby you can catch the old tram 28 to get to Bairro Alto or Baixa.
Everywhere nearby are plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from. From local, authentic and cheap (try it, you recognize it because of TLlight, plastic table clothes and Television screen, but the fish and seafood is always fresh and the cheese and wine delicious) to more touristic and pricy and also more hip places like "Pois cafe", Cantina Baldracca (good wood oven pizza and spaghetti with fresh fish) and "Chapito" (the last one is more expensive but good and with amazing view).

When we return to Lisbon we will definately choose Mafaldas apartment again.
