Isabel is a wonderful host. A wonderful host! We had several questions before we arrived. She was responsive and provided helpful information which made our stay easy and comfortable. She was just delightful when she greeted us upon our arrival. She helped to orient us to the neighborhood which made us feel very much at home. When it was time to leave she helped arrange transportation to the airport and graciously allowed us to keep our luggage at the apartment until we left for the our late afternoon flight. Obrigado Isabel, obrigado.

Upon our arrival we found the apartment to be immaculate and even more spacious than shown in the photographs. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen well supplied with pots, pans, dishes, etc…, the WiFi worked very well and the couch and seats were all comfortable too.

We used the kitchen every morning for making breakfast, coffee and tea preparing for our daily adventures in Lisbon. The view of the water, the red tiled rooftops and Portos do Sol, is spectacular. Although there is no air conditioning, the cool evening breeze provided by the huge windows is great for sleeping (unlike others in our group, I am a fan of air conditioning but I slept well and comfortably every night). Our party of 5 adults slept comfortably and six or even 8 with children would have been just fine. With 2 full baths, getting up and out was a breeze.

The apartment is on the nicest street in Alfama with easy access to transportation. There are several local markets within a block for fresh fruits, eggs, bread, vegetables and groceries.

If I had one complaint, it is that the 28 tram runs on the street and is a bit noisy at times. Other than that this apartment is a great value and a terrific choice.

Thank you Isabel. We would gladly stay again and again and again. We loved Lisbon and loved this apartment and thank you for your hospitality.
