Elena's place is a fantastic base from which to explore the wonderful city of Lisbon. We had a really great stay here, there is something very calming and timeless about this little nest in the heart of Alfalma.
The space itself is very charming. Generously sized for two people, probably a little cramped for any more than that. The decoration is very tasteful and the kitchen and bathroom well appointed. They bed is comfy and we had excellent nights sleep in the loft space. My favorite part of the stay was to just sit with the window open on the comfy seats taking in the sounds of the street below.
The location for Elena's place is jut superb. A ten minute walk up the steps takes you to the no.28 tram line and stunning views back over the old town to the river. Five minutes down hill and you are at the river front to walk along to the main square and get connections onwards to Belem/Cascais.
Check in and communication throughout the stay was very smooth and professional. We felt really lucky to have found this place at quite short notice, would highly recommend!
