Sofia's apartment totally exceeded our expectations. We were met nearby by Sofia's parents, who guided us to the pedestrian-only street and helped us get oriented and settled in. The location in the heart of Alfama, just far enough from the heavily travelled routes, provided a wonderful, quiet respite after long days of sightseeing. The apartment itself was charming and had plenty of space for the two of us. The very best part, though, was the stunning view of Alfama and the Tejo River.
