Better than photos. We loved our stay. Reasonable parking is an easy 10 minute walk if traveling by car. The photos really don't do it justice. It was an ideal location to experience the Alfama district. We loved listening to the Fado music at night in the comfort of the apartment. We slept in the front bedroom and had no noise issues. It was April so our windows were closed. The bathroom is unusually large for a city apartment. Shower worked great. Laundry worked great and they even supplied the detergent which was such a thoughtful touch. Very good stay. Thank you Carole & Pedro.
