My partner and I stayed in David's flat for 6 nights and we had an amazing stay. The location was perfect: bars, restaurants, transport, you name it, were all in walking distance. We were initially thinking of staying in Alfama but this was the better choice for us hands down.
David replied so fast to any questions we had, which was hugely appreciated.
If you're looking for a place to stay in this area, then you hopefully already know that it's a great scene for nightlife. This results in it being noisy at night, but this wasn't an issue for us. If it's an issue, we recommend buying some earplugs at a pharmacy, problem solved.
Thank you David!
