We really enjoyed staying in Alfama. Rui and his wife were very friendly and greeted us when we arrived. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The apartment had everything we needed and Rui responded quickly about any questions that we had. They also very helpful in providing maps, guides, and current local events. The location was close to the city center and many of the main sites. Definitely felt a part of this lively neighborhood, the sound from the street can easily be heard most of the day. So if you're looking for a quiet spot, keep this in mind. We're from the city so it was not an issue. Would definitely return to this listing.
