We stayed at Gonzalo’s apartment for six days. We loved the open, spacious rooms which were full of original character and the choice of balconies, front and back. The location is very convenient for Santa Apolonia station, with its Pingo Doce supermarket and the Alfama District. We found the apartment extremely quiet and the area is very safe. As has been mentioned before, the apartment is at the top of a steep climb, but don’t let this put you off. We didn’t have any problems finding the accommodation and Gonzalo and Fernando were very welcoming and quick with their responses. We would love to return.
