The flat is like the immediate neighborhood, very quaint and with personality but a bit run down. It was clean and interesting and with a nice, standing view of the bay from the deck. The hot water in the kitchen does not turn on consistently and only when the water is on full force. Hopefully they fix this. Bed was great and place was quiet. A/c worked great. Communication was good too. Loved the Alfama neighborhood. Hike the hills, take tram 28, or use Uber!
