This apartment is spacious (very), beautifully decorated, Lisbon charm. We especially enjoyed the balcony overlooking the lush green garden, and the wonderfully quiet nights for sleeping. The kitchen and bathroom are fully supplied. The host is informative and friendly. The neighborhood felt safe, and conveniently near the train station. We highly recommended this apartment.

First time in Portugal

The property manager was wonderful to work with—prompt to reply and flexible. Our apartment was all we could have wished for—roomy, charmingly decorated, and quiet. It was easy to get places from there, and there were good eating establishments within walking distance. The history of the area made it that much more interesting. We would recommend it to all visitors!

Alfama apartment is the best location

The apartment is cozy and welcoming after a full day of walking this gorgeous city. The neighborhood restaurants are quaint and tourist friendly and would highly recommend. I stayed for four nights with my 21 grand-daughter and we felt safe and relaxed. The location is quiet and check-in friendly and warm. The Metro and Train are very close as we used them to travel to Evora and to the Airport to pick up a car rental for further travel in Portugal. It’s the best!

Schönes Apartment!

Guter Kontakt, Joāo hat uns empfangen und freundlich willkommen geheißen. Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber, gut ausgestattet, toll gelegen in der Alfama nicht weit vom Zentrum und vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Etliche Restaurants und Bars befinden sich in der Umgebung. Man kommt von der Wohnung schnell in alle Richtungen, da sich nur 5 Minuten zu Fuß der Bahnhof/ Metro/Busstation und Taxistand befindet ! Praktischer gehts nicht.

A slice of life in Lisbon

We enjoyed being a part of the neighborhood, eating and enjoying Fado within steps of the apartment. We could choose to go into other parts of town and experience the tourist activities or stay close to the apartment and feel like we were hanging out with locals. Santa Apolonia station was convenient for both train and subway travel. Overall, a great stay!

Taumhafte Unterkunft in Alfama, zentral gelegen aber etwas abseits vom Touristenstrom

Die geschmakvoll eingerichtete/konfortable Altbauwohnung liegt eine Querstraße vom Wasser entfernt und daher geht immer ein angenehmes Lüftchen. Wir waren sehr gerne "zu Hause" und haben den Blick ins Grüne sowie auf die enge und tagsüber belebte Gasse sehr genossen. Sehr gute öffendliche Anbindung (auch zum Flughafen), zahlreiche Lokale /Cafes sowie MiniMercados um die Ecke.
