Great stay in Alfama

Great location in historic Alfama. Right in the middle of a neighborhood with narrow cobblestone streets where local still live. Property was great and we enjoyed the outside patio. Had a few hiccups with some drivers not being able to find the location, but otherwise great.

Alfama stay

Beautiful property in the oldest area in Lisbon ( Alfama) be aware that there are lots of hills in this area( great exercise)! Plenty of room for 3 couples and an outside terrace to relax in after a long day of sightseeing. Stocked with all essentials you’ll need for the first few days. Check in was easy. We loved it!

Beautiful stay in a historic area!

Excellent stay. Very smooth check in. Amazing location (not overly accessible but we had no issues with that!). Beds were comfortable, AC in every bedroom. Lots of bathrooms. Terrace is beautiful and large. Only couple small factors that we gave 4/5 for are cleanliness (couple bathrooms were not overly clean upon arrival) and some kitchen supplies (eg could use an oven mitt and slightly larger frying pan would be great).

Family Vacation

We had a great stay, but be prepared to walk everywhere. The layout worked really well for our group of eight people. There were two master bedrooms with their own bathroom, and then the other two rooms shared two bathrooms (one with just a toilet and the other one with a toilet and shower). The kitchen was well-stocked, and the living area was nice for hanging out. There was an outdoor balcony, but we didn't really get to use it because of the time of year we were there (and it rained!).

Vickie's Birthday adventure

Stayed with group of 7 adults. Plenty spacious, well appointed, sunny and bright. Amazing location for staying in oldest part of city. You need to be fit and able to accommodate for the streets and stairs for this apartment , especially with luggage. Short walk to everything on hillside , but it is located at midpoint. Many great restaurants and bars and historic sights all around.

Excellent flat with great location

Beautiful and well-appointed flat apartment with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, wonderful terrace, all the amenities that one needs in Lisbon. The location is great in old town Alfama, where you need good walking shoes to climb hills, stairs and stone streets and walkways. Plenty of bars, restaurants, cafes and mercados available to get what you might need/want. Carlos was a fantastic host and was very easy to work with and extremely helpful.

Best Friend Trip

Great place to stay in Lisbon as long as you are good with stairs. Excellent location for immersing yourself in the city of Lisbon. Very clean and well-maintained. The property manager was great and very easy to communicate and deal with. Only concern we had was a group of women that the blinds/covers were inadequate in the common space and we observed the neighbors watching us closely. Highly recommend this space!

Inside Alfama

Very nice, modern apartment in the heart of Alfama. Neighborhood is going through gentrification so there is a variety of homes/apartments at different levels of repair and restoration. Abundance of restaurants and transportation reasonably close. Car pickup or drop-off is inconvenient but doable. Walking, and steps to 2nd floor, are steep but not too challenging unless you are senior elders. Owners and their representatives were very cordial and available.

Spacious apartment in Alfama

This property is exactly as advertised: it's a beautiful space located in the Alfama neighborhood. It was a comfortable place for us to hang out with each other, even when rain kept us off the patio (which is huge!). Climate control in each room was great, and the rooms are sound-isolated from each other and the rest of the apartment. Someone could get up in the morning and make coffee without waking everyone else up. As is common in Europe, there is a washer but no dryer. There are, however, drying racks and heated towel warmers that do a great job on socks. There were only two keys, so we did have to do some careful management in our group to ensure folks doing different things could get in when they needed to.

Great Lisbon base

We were a large group of 7 using this apartment as a base to explore Lisbon. Alfama is truly the oldest section, with extreme walking on very hilly narrow cobblestone streets. We loved the accommodations and enjoyed the terrace as well. All was well maintained although some where and tear is evident with some of the furniture and living room rug. It is an old neighborhood with many buildings encasing our apartment adding to the charm. Just down a narrow street is the best coffee and lunch shop, and just a few more doors down is a fabulous pastry shop. Our host helped with arranging luggage transport from the train station and also helping making arrangements for transport to the airport. Since it is the “historic” area of the city , the location was challenging for Uber and Taxi drivers to locate as google maps wanted to take us out of the city . We did figure it out and used the cathedral of St George as our destination and we were dropped off close to the apartment. Overall, the apartment worked well for us and would stay there again hopefully someday.

Great property in heart of Alfama, walkable to many areas

We were three couples staying in Lisbon for the first time. This property offered very good bedroom space and bathrooms for each couple; and was very clean, plus beds comfortable. The kitchen had all necessary appliances (ie standard coffee maker). We appreciated the outdoor space to sit outside for breakfast and/or evening wine. The neighborhood is quiet in the evening so good for sleeping. There was a bakery down the lane outside of the property and a mini-market a short walk through the quaint alley-like streets further for some essentials. Up the stairs from the property (3 min walk "up") brought you to beautiful views over Alfama/Lisbon (an easy walk to catch an amazing sunrise), and a rooftop bar nearby. There are plenty of restaurants walking distance. Additionally, if you come in by train, you can walk to the property (15 min) but would only suggest doing so with smaller rolling bags; otherwise, would suggest going by taxi/uber. Additionally, communicating with Paula was terrific. She was super responsive to all our questions, helped to coordinate our arrival, provided walking instructions and helped to arrange our departure taxis to the airport. I would definitely recommend this location when staying in Lisbon.

A nicely modernized old apartment in Alfama

The communication with the property rental company was very good. We used the baggage service that they recommended and this proved to be very useful, having our luggage collected at the airport and delivered to the property at check in time. The property is well maintained and in a very small street only taxis can enter the area but the closest they can get is about 100 yards away. There are 4 ways in and out from the apartment, one is up steps, two are up hills and the last is down a steep narrow street. You need to be able to cope wit stairs and steep hills. The 4 bedrooms were useful for our family of 3 couples. The 4th bedroom was used to house some of the luggage as 3 of the bedrooms are quite small. The patio is a welcome addition and was a nice place to relax and have a cocktail after a day of walking the streets of Lisbon. The small living room had a really dirty rug that should really be thrown out. A major failing of this property is the lack of mugs, glasses, plates etc. It can accommodate 8 people but there were only 5 coffee mugs. With 6 of us all wanting coffee or tea in the morning we had to take turns to use a mug! To add to that the dishwasher worked overtime with very small loads.

Authentic

We were right in the centre of a very old part of Lisbon in a typical ( very old ) building with so much character yet all the modern amenities. Everyone in our group of 7 loved the place. Highly recommended for people looking for a real Lisbon experience. While it is a little challenging being in an area with no motor vehicles, that was part of the charm of the unit and only added to our adventure. We saw so much as we traversed up and down the ancient cobblestone streets.
