We used this apartment as base for a 4 day stay in Lisbon. We used train and bus to get close to area, then it took some time to find the apartment. Though we arrived later than we had communicated, Lara had waited for our arrival then spent a lot of time to provide ideas on what to see, restaurants, etc. the alfama area itself was our favorite part of Lisbon - we enjoyed exploring its winding small streets. nearby were small grocery stores and many choices for restaurants.
Recommend to use taxi to get there since - Uber drivers cannot get into the old section. If you decide to use Uber for getting around when there, just walk down by the water, for pickup or drop off.
The apartment was furnished with all the basic needs. The steps up to apartment are small and narrow. For a couple of nights there was loud talking that could be heard in the apartment until 11-12. But overall a great stay.
Owner was easy to reach during stay.
Highly recommend.
