We had a great time staying at Simone's place. She was flexible with our check in time since we landed so early in the morning and met us right on schedule. The apartment was well prepared for our stay and Simone was an excellent guide for exploring Alfama! She gave us a lot of great suggestions for eating delicious food, listening to authentic fado music and places to get a drink and hang out at night. We kept referencing the advice that Simone gave us throughout our stay in Lisbon! Alfama can be a confusing neighborhood with a lot of winding roads, but the apartment was a great location and accessible- once we got our bearings it was very easy to find! It is really close to a plaza and the Fado Museum which is a great spot to grab a cab if you are heading to other parts of Lisbon, but it is also within walking distance of beautiful and interesting spots in Alfama. I definitely recommend staying in Alfama while staying in Lisbon- it is an unusual and beautiful neighborhood to be in.
