Excellent location in Alfama
Overall, the location of this place is what you’re paying for. You can’t beat it! We had some issues at first - we didn’t get our check in details until after the 3pm check in time + I think that was because they were trying to replace the water heater before we arrived. We were welcomed by the nicest guy ever who gave us a tour of the place which made up for the delay and water issues. We never had any issues with the water once they replaced the unit as we arrived. It’s three bedrooms, two full bathrooms… and the balcony has the best view of the bridge and the cruise ships. I do feel that with the amount we paid, there could have been a few more small things that would have made this place as perfect as the view/location - little things like lamps that actually have a place to be plugged in and used in the living room, clocks that are hanging on the wall but don’t actually work, loud plumbing noises when you flush the toilet, + a tv where we could change the subtitles so that we could follow along. I also think that short term rentals should provide shampoo, conditioner and shower gel as a minimum as most people are not going to want to travel with those items. There was hand soap and shampoo in an ikea container for us when we checked in so we had to buy some items. Overall I loved the location and balcony - but I think this apartment could be improved with some small things to make it even more welcoming, especially when customers are going to be comparing to hotels.

Alfama river view
Great location , walking distance to many Lisbon attractions and public transport. Apartment was suitable for our family of 6. Not a luxury apartment but the location could not have been better. The kitchen had enough equipment to be able to prepare meals, although we only ever made breakfast. The view of the river and breeze from the large balcony doors was lovely.

Beautiful location
The place was clean and we loved the location. Now the negative…it was advertised as having air conditioning….it did not. It had fans that didn’t work and it was hot and miserable. The manager did bring two new fans. There is no counters or towel racks in the bathrooms but plenty of room to put some. There was no shampoo only hand soap. These are easy fixes and I’m sure they will. It should also be noted that the property in on a cobblestone hill that cars cannot go down. We had to take all our luggage down the hill which for people in there late 60’s was difficult for a couple of us Those are just some suggestions and ideas. We loved the town.

Perfect location for exploring Lisbon
This was a great home base for us during our time in Lisbon. We loved this neighborhood and would definitely choose it again. The apartment is located on a quiet residential street that is walking distance to cafes, shops, St George’s, and the Baixa and Rossio. Our booking and check-in were easy, friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend this place and Sé!

We would stay here again. The hosts arranged transportation from airport for us. They were very responsive. The apartment was in a great location, close to restaurants and sights. The apartment was also clean and had an elevator.

Great stay
We had a great stay in the Alfama district. The apartment was spacious and clean, we had no issues at all. If you’re not familiar with Lisbon I should warn you that it is in the historical district which is very steep and not easy for anyone with mobility issues. My husband is waiting for a hip replacement so it was a little challenging for him getting around. The apartment has an elevator so there was no problem there though..

Cannot recommend
Nothing special. View is more limited than pictures imply. Check-in was a nightmare w/ host insisting we owned $300 security deposit. We kept refusing until finally he checked w/ his office & learned his mistake. We did owe the tourist tax which we were expecting. But he would not make change so we ended up having to overpay the tax. He only gave us 1 set of keys & it took days to get another. They didn't always work & we learned well into our trip that there was a code to the front door. All very frustrating. Very poor communication. Place wasn't that clean and is run-down. Not stocked with anything, not even adequate tp. We suggested small improvements to make it more comfortable, but no action was taken. Shower didn't drain. No storage in bathroom, not even a towel hook. Liked being in Alfama but next time will opt for Baixa, as more centrally located. You can do better than this place, I'm sure.

Family trip in the heart of Alfama
Our stay in Alfama could not have been better! The location was perfect - quick walk to the metro, even quicker to Tram 28 and the Catherdral. Restaurants and shops all around! The view of the river and the bridge was AMAZING! Sunrise and Sunset just were gorgeous!!! Perfect for NYE with the fireworks! The hosts were soooooo helpful with airport transfers and general information, along with being understanding and helpful as our flights were delayed due to weather. Check-in and check-out were so easy. Definatley recommend to friends, family, and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful location
The apartment has a wonderful fifth floor balcony that overlooks Alfama. The location was terrific for exploring Lisbon. Check in a communication was seemless. It is not a luxury apartment, but was very serviceable for several nights with family.
