Sarah and Jorge went to a lot of work to make this little alcove work for guests. Although the ceilings are angled (it's an attic space) and there is not much square footage, they have thoughtfully made good use of every inch of available space. It was very comfortable for 2 people. Jorge met us at the Fado Museum and helped us carry our luggage up the stairs, which without suitcases are otherwise an easy climb. He showed us around the apartment so we were informed how things worked. He also sent us lots of information as far as places to go and things to see. What surprised us, however, was the noise. I'm sure 50 weeks out of the year guests would not encounter this, but we happened to arrive the first weekend in June, and the guide books don't tell you that the Alfama neighborhood celebrates St. Anthony's festival for 2 weeks, not 2 days. Music is piped throughout the neighborhood on loudspeakers, and they don't stop until 2 o'clock in the morning. If you like German polka music, are young, and like to party all night long, this is the perfect place for you from June 1 - 15. Sara and Jorge's place must be perfect the other 50 weeks out of the year.
