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.

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.

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.

Cute little place in the heart of alfama
We had a wonderful stay in Alfama! The apartment location was perfect for our purposes. We didn’t spend much time there, so the fact that place was much smaller than I expected (probably my fault for not reading closer) was not an issue. Just as some other reviews, the bathroom is very small and the shower was tiny! Only enough water for a speedy shower, ya gotta move quick or it gets chilly fast! P.S. if you have a few extra lb’s on ya, getting through the shower doors much be a challenge! ;)

Beautiful and clean apartment in a location fairly central to many attractions - Castelo de Sao Jorge, Praca do Comercio, a couple miradouros, and some restaurants and shops. Three tall women fit pretty well - though it was a little tight (shower is small), but we knew that going in. The S. Anthony Festival was just getting started and so there was a lot of activity right outside, but with everything closed up and a little white noise machine and a fan, it was not an issue. There are a lot of stairs to reach the apartment - more going up away from the apt. than going down (we caught Ubers on the closest major street down - across the street from the cruise terminal) and it was just a short walk. We had everything we needed in the apartment, and the wine and treats left by our host were very welcoming! A charming little flat.

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.

What an adventure...
Location of the property is wonderful for exploring Alfama. Not recommended for anyone not physically fit. Much walking is required, a car would be impractical and exploring involves almost constant climbing of hills and stairs. Rua de Adica is very hard to find the first time and it takes a few days to understand the maze of streets. Well worth it, though. Suggest taking a taxi or Uber when arriving the first time. Love the property, lots going on in the area. The bed is comfortable, but the bathroom is tiny and the shower is very small and takes some getting used to. All in all this is a decent rental for two adventurous people in a great location.

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 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!

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.

Good location, great restaurants and very comfortable mattress. It would be helpful if the apartment had a fan but maybe we missed it? Kitchen is well stocked, quality of towels was excellent also. It was too many stairs for us but we managed. More attention to the street cleaning would be recommended.

Amazing for what we wanted!
Fantastic location in the Alfama part of Lisboa with a nice window overlooking the street. Easy walking distance to many parts of Lisboa, trains, boats, restaurants, etc. Claudia was responsive the one time we needed something but left us to our own devices otherwise. The kitchen is small but well-equipped. We were able to do breakfasts there and cook a bit for dinner. The place is tiny - especially the bathroom/shower - but it definitely does the job. Would stay there again.

Loved everything about this place!
Well located, although a bit of a hike to get there. The place is lovely with everything you need plus a few extras like wine, coffee, water, chips and cookies upon arrival! So nice! The bed is comfortable with good bedding. The living room window is at the corner of the building and close to the neighbours window so could get a bit noisy, however, nothing that was too bad. I’d love to come back!

Lovely apartment
Lovely apartment in quiet street, has everything we needed. With the balcony door open you can hear the neighbours chatting and neighbour's bird singing which creates a nice village atmosphere. Very well located in the old town, close to many of the major sights. Not suitable if you cannot navigate lots of steps.

Great Location
The location of Claudia`s property is excellent, perfect spot if you want to feel part of a neighborhood! It was a great location for touring around Lisbon and so many good restaurants within walking distance. The apartment was smaller than expected but has all the facilities you need. The only major downside is the shower that needs a big refresh. Also it would be a good idea to change the mattress. Claudia is very kind and a helpful host.
