Staying in Alfama was wonderful. From the window of the living room, we could hear great Fado every night from a restaurant around the corner. Throughout the twists and turns of the neighborhood there are many wonderful restaurants and shops that making exploring around the place a joy. It's a short walk to several metro stops, as well as major bus and cable car lines.
What stood out more than the convenience of the flat was Daniel and Catia's generous hospitality. The apartment was well prepared and cleaned with full set of dishes, coffee and tea, great furnishings and several guidebooks on Lisbon and the surrounding areas. Daniel and Catia gave us ample information on how to get to the apartment from the airport, provided a very simple check-in process, and gave us great advice on the sorts of things we could find in Alfama. We felt very comfortable staying here, and find it easy to recommend to you.
