A brilliant little apartment in the perfect location. The hosts are lovely and were great to communicate with before our stay. This is a perfect base for a city break to Lisbon - we will be back!
This apartment is central to all Alfama attractions. Check in and communication were seamless. The apartment is clean and comfortable. It is compact and below grade level with the 28 tram going by regularly so you will notice some noise/vibration. There is a dehumidifier that ran steadily.
The apartment was in the perfect spot. It was easy to walk to so many places, and transit was right there as well. The place was clean and tidy and just as advertised. Would 100% stay there again!
Absolutely loved this neighborhood full of quaint narrow lanes and streets and old shops. Such character. The tram runs right by the apt, but sleeping in the back, you donât hear it. If you sleep in the front room, it might be.
The main bedroom is comfortable. I canât speak for the front bunk beds, used it as a dressing room.
Kitchen is adequate. I didnât really cook there with all the great restaurants about.
If you donât like to walk there are plenty of taxis and ever-ready Ubers about. Iâm a walker so it didnât bother me. Great entertainment on the terraces facing thr ocean.
Lots to do in Lisbon!
This apt. is partially renovated and has already taken a bit of a beating. The bunk bed is TERRIBLE. It might be ok for a little child, but according to the listing you don't even allow children so I'm not sure how 2 more adults could use those beds. We took the mattress from the top and put it on bottom and 1 adult still could not sleep because it was so uncomfortable. Also, it doesn't seem the floors have been cleaned at all. On day 1 my new white socks were almost black. We also had to chip ice out of the freezer to use it. The sofa is not a sofa, it is a worn out futon. Good things: your security system is great, bathroom is nice, double bed is good, loved the location. But all that goes unappreciated if you can't sleep and then can't enjoy the sites because you're so tired. Great for one person or a couple, definitely not for 4 adults or 2 singles.
Overall we had a great stay in the apartment. Although small, everything we needed was included. There could have been greater clarity on the double bedroom being internal as this came as something of a surprise. We had very noisy residents above us who kept us awake some nights. Also, the bar across the road could be very noisy. On the plus side, the location is perfect, convenient for most places or a short stroll at least. The check in process was informative although everything we needed to know was also available in the folder.
