My wife and I stayed here on our honeymoon. This large 2nd-floor studio was an amazing place to stay. It's located next to the Sao Miguel church in the old neighborhood of the Alfalma. It's an open space with a living area, bed, dining room, and a separate kitchen. The windows can be shuttered for privacy, or opened for light and/or air. A great view of the old streets of the Alfalma. There is some debris from a demolished building adjacent to the view, but that's no fault of the host. The kitchen was perfectly stocked. We were able to get coffee, chocolate, tea, eggs, butter, bacon, local sheep's milk cheese, wine, beer, fresh bread, port, and ginja(sour-cherry liquor) at the convenience store around the corner. The kitchen was great for rainy mornings, being able to make breakfast and coffee and wait out the brief rainspells, as well as some late-night meals.
A few minutes walk up the steep city staircases leads to great views, tram access, and the path to the Sau Jorge Castle. Great food options nearby. There was some minor smell from cigarette smoke from the tenant on the first floor(you're staying in a multi-unit building). This did not bother us at all, but I saw it mentioned in some reviews, so wanted to give my perspective. There is a washing machine for clothes and a drying rack, which proved very convenient. There is a dog on the first floor that barks loudly when you enter the building. It's great having the dog for added building security. It's located very close to the train station. When we left, we just walked 5-minutes to the Santa Apolonia train station to get to Porto. We loved visiting Portugal, and can't wait to come back. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
