Hi, we love the area. Toilet seat was broken. Needs new pins to hold toilet seat in place. Tap in kitchen needs tightening. Mattress needs replacing. Gave us both sore backs. Tv didn’t work in bedroom. All in all we enjoyed our stay. People in the area were friendly and we felt very safe. Very nice city.

Lisbon first time visit

Centrally placed, small but well- equipped apartment in historic Alfama. Easy access to all city attractions and for travel beyond. We had 4 nights stay which we thought was enough time to see the City and its attractions. We can recommend the apartment and would likely stay here again on a future visit.

If you can't manage stairs then this is a problem. We found the accommodation great and well provided with everything we need. There was even a gift of wine and cookies for us upon arrival.We really enjoyed our stay and would use it again should we visit Lisbon in the future.

Lovely flat in an excellent location in Alfama.

The flat is clean and tidy in an excellent location in the Alfama area of Lisbon. Communication with the owner was efficient and informative. Lisbon is a lovely city to visit, but very hilly. Make sure you like walking!

Wonderful Lisbon apartment

The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates glasses and a variety of appliances. We were within walking distance of many shops and great restaurants as well as historical places. One recommendation is to bring good walking shoes. This area is very hilly.

An authentic Alfama experience!

This small but well appointed apartment in the historic Alfama neighborhood is a wonderful experience. The streets are narrow, the hills are steep, and the stairs - many, but the neighborhood is colorful. We agree with everything that Terry and Peggy say in previous reviews and also agree that is an experience to enjoy. Communications with the host were very easy and friendly. The restaurant just up the street is not to be missed. Overall a terrific stay in Old Lisbon.

Alfama apartment

We loved the location! There are restaurants around every corner and All of them were delicious. People were so friendly. The apartment is quaint and cute. The only draw backs are the hot water in the shower is inconsistent and there are a lot of steps to get up there. We are in our 70’s and handled them well so most people should be fine. Claudia is so responsive and was a wonderful hostess. We would stay again.

The area was lovely. We were not there as tourists but to spend Christmas with Family who live in Lisbon. The location was central, close the the waterfront and a 10 min walk to the downtown. You can choose to go up the stairs( Visit the lady who sells the Ginja on the way) and get to a great vantage point or down and explore fantastic little restaurants and Fado houses. The apartment is cute and has everything you could need. It was a treat to come in and find cookies, coffee pods tea and sugar. Claudia was so responsive right down to giving us the location of the store to buy pods! We stayed for two weeks, the building was quiet and the residents were friendly and chatty. I would definitely stay there again and would highly recommend. The only caveat is the shower. My Hubby is just over 6 ft and 230 lbs the shower was very tight for him but doable.

Wonderful Location

Beautiful historical neighborhood. We truly enjoyed our stay. The apartment is charming but the best part was getting to know the locals. Due to unexpected circumstances, we had to extend our stay. Our host, Claudia guided us through the process and helped every step of the way. She even called us a taxi on the day of our departure, so we wouldn’t have to make an international call. We’d love to go back and if we do, we are definitely stay at the same apartment. Thank you Claudia for being a wonderful host.

The shower is extremely small and the hot water only lasts one minute. We had problems with the door and I tried to contact the owner, but she never answered us, we were lucky that a very nice young man helped us. The best thing about the apartment was the location.
