The location is the best thing about the apartment, we loved Alfama and would recommend the bar next door, nearby pastry shop and the lady at no. 40 sells delicious ginja! The apartment is clean and it's small but has everything you need. The A/C is great. It's all in the 1 room including the bathroom (it's just a glass screen separating it) so it's best for couples or very close friends. We didn't find the bed comfortable and the apartment seemed to have a bit of damp so overall would not recommend but it does have many good points.
