Perfect location to experience and explore Lisbon.
We enjoyed our stay immensely. The apartment is in a perfect location to experience and explore Lisbon. The apartment is clean and very comfortable. I will definitely return the next time we visit Lisbon.
Had a little difficultly finding the place. It is an excellent location but can be a bit noisy at night. The apartment is on the small side but had everything we needed. I would recommend.

Florence place was an exceptional value and we will most certainly return . The charm of the property is irresistible. The location was perfect. Walking distance to all train stations, attractions and restaurants. The view from balcony and top floors was amazing. Communication was outstanding with the host. Thank you for letting us stay at your place

Thank you so much Gracjan. I will be very happy to welcome you again.
The location was excellent right near Sao Estevao. One slight drawback to that location was groups gathering to sing and play music at 2am in the overlook. The apartment was small and the upstairs ceiling quite low, rather uncomfortable for our tall group. This listing best for people under about 5’5”.

Great location. Small space.
Location is excellent except for young people across from the apartment outside playing guitars and singing at 3 or 4 AM every night. Not a great sleep. Dust coating the fans and mold on the shower. Can’t be claustrophobic in this place!

Thanks to your valuable feedback, we have improved your comfort by installing soundproof double windows, to guarantee you an even more peaceful and pleasant stay.
The apartment is in a great location, as long as you are okay with some steps and hills. It is near several restaurants and small grocery stores. Our host, Florence, has a Welcome book with helpful information about the apartment and places to go in Lisbon. We had two couples on our trip and found the apartment very tight for the 4 of us. Other than the kitchen table there wasn't a space where we could sit and hang out together. The bathrooms are quite small. It would be better for one couple or a couple of friends. Overall we did enjoy staying there but next time will probably look for a little more space.

We had a great stay, and Florence was a very communicative and helpful host! The apartment is adorable and in a great location for seeing the city. Our only note is that, as mentioned elsewhere, it's a lively neighborhood and can get noisy. What's worth specifying is that this is came in the form of people loudly singing, playing guitar, etc. directly across from the apartment between the hours of midnight and 4am. Overall, the space/hosts are wonderful, but if you're sensitive to sound, you may want to look in other neighborhoods.
We stayed in Alfama as a central point to tour Lisbon, Sintra, Evora, and Belem. The apartment was clean, had most of what we needed, was close to sights, and to groceries. The breezes (and fans).were enough to keep us cool at night, but things were a little snug in the bathrooms (I am 1.96 meters tall) and one of the toilet.seats was loose. There was also a slight sewer smell in the bathroom next to the kitchen.
Our main complaint was that partiers would gather at St. Estavo overlook and sing, play music, and basically be raucous until 4 AM! We thought Alfama was quieter than downtown but that was not always the case. Florence was a very gravious host and very responsive to our needs.

Too many stairs
This apartment is close to the Tagus. One must be in excellent shape as the neighborhood is very hilly and many steps to reach the apartment. Inside are narrow stairwell to apartment. As mentioned elsewhere the location has groups gathering right outside the door playing music, starting at 12 am till 4 am. This went on for 3 nights in a row. This apartment does not have a living or family room, just a small kitchen with no windows.

Thank you for your comment, even if all the points you mention are very clearly identifiable in the ad.
Great little spot, but neighborhood noise was too much
Loved the properation location and size (2 adults, one 10yo kid - a larger kid or another adult would have been too tight). The place had everything we needed. However, the proximity to all-night partiers, singers, instruments players made sleep very difficult for all of us. We could hear everything from alleys below and the churchyard patio area outside. It was fun the first night, then not fun at all. But the space and location are so good! The step down in rating only reflects the volume of the neighborhood, not the actual apartment (we did not find the promised ear plugs - that my have helped a bit). In a dif location this would have been fantastic. Loved the view, the short walk to metro station and river, etc.

I am very happy that you appreciated all the positive points of this apartment: location, comfort, equipment and proximity to attractions. I regret that the neighborhood was noisy during your stay, if you had alerted me I would have told you where to find the earplugs. See you soon.
It's in Alfama which dates to the 8th century. Any accommodation is going to be narrow with stairs. Everywhere you turn there are stairs or steep streets. Two of us are about 55 and found it charming, interesting, fun and laughed at the constant stairs in Alfama and the building we were in. Two travellers are 65-70 and found the area (and building) quite challenging.
Some reviews mention "noise" - - - across the street is a large gathering area that the local residents use. They play some music (until about midnight), have a few cervejas and mostly talk well into the night (3:30 - 4:00 am). We did not have a problem with it - - - it wasn't rowdy.
The host left an extensive "Welcome Book" - - - some info is a bit dated but overall we appreciated the book. Our host was quick to reply to our questions.
We (the 55s) would definitely stay in the area again.
A Hidden Gem for FamiliesI booked this property located in the Alfama district of Lisbon with little to no knowledge of the city. We lucked out. The host was extremely accommodating, with clear instructions on how to access the property, and a literal book of sights to see, food to try, and experiences to be had during our stay.If you want to feel like a local on your stay, this is the spot. Tight streets, restaurants around every narrow corner. And by day two you’ll see a host of familiar faces on your walk to and from the apartment. The streets of Alfama are cobblestone and winding, but even with my wife’s recently injured knee and my kids both under the age of 8 years old, trekking through the neighborhood was part of the magical adventure.Highly recommend spending your nights in the Fado houses in the neighborhood.
L’appartement est petit, mais bien. Près du downtown très populaire et vraiment beau. A éviter pour les personnes à mobilité réduite, parce que beaucoup de marches et rue très inégales et escarpées. Globalement, nous avons apprécié notre séjour.
Belle situation pour cet appartement dans l'Alfama, quartier très populaire et très sympa. Dommage que les nuits étaient un peu perturbés à cause de fêtes tous les soirs sur le parvis de l'église en face de l'appartement parfois jusqu'à 4 heures du matin mais cela fait parti de la vie en ville... Cela ne nous a pas empêché de profiter de cette belle ville qu'est Lisbonne ! A faire
Leuk appartement en vlakbij een uitzichtpunt van Lissabon. Het is ook centraal gelegen in de wijk Alfama met al zijn gezelligheid, lekker eten en leuke terrasjes.
Great location only a few minutes walk from the banks of the Tagus. The neighborhood is very hilly with many steep inclines and steps to reach the apartment. One should be in good health to reach and stay here, but the availability of restaurants, transportation, and sights are the reward. Historic Alfama neighborhood is absolute magic.
l'appartement est conforme à la description. une cuisine bien équipée qui sert de pièce à vivre (sans fenêtre), 2 chambres avec des literies plutôt confortables et 2 petites salles de bains (plutôt pratique). l'appartement est situé dans l'alfama, le quartier touristique de Lisbonne. Le point noir est la population du soir qui s'attroupe sous les fenêtres (petite terrasse devant une église) pour chanter et jouer de la guitare toute la nuit empêchant les habitants de dormir. J'avais déjà loué dans ce quartier sans problème mais cette fois ci nous n'avons que peu dormi malgré les bouchons d'oreilles laissés par la propriétaire (ce qui n'est pas bon signe en arrivant). Florence est très à l'écoute et répond aux sollicitations, cependant et juste à cause du bruit je ne recommande pas cette location pour ce prix.
Upgraded and well maintained property that has retained it’s heritage. It had everything we needed to live very comfortably, with lovely views of Alfama.

Nel cuore di Alfama un piccolo appartamento
Non abbiamo avuto difficoltà a trovare l’appartamento anche se il quartiere è molto intricato. La casa è molto piccola e la cucina senza finestra. Anche i bagni sono davvero molto molto stretti. L’appartamento ci è piaciuto per la posizione ma non è molto vivibile. Le scale di accesso sono davvero ripide, ma è così in tutti i palazzi del quartiere essendo storici. In compenso si può raggiungere a piedi la maggior parte dei luoghi di interesse nel centro città.

Parfait pour 2 couples
L'appartement était comme décrit, propre et ramassé. Avec tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour passer quelques jours deux couples, des chambres spacieuses avec télévision et deux salles de bains qui vous donnent beaucoup d'intimité. Il n'y avait pas de climatisation, il y avait des ventilateurs que nous n'avions pas besoin d'allumer car nous dormions assez bien avec les fenêtres ouvertes. L'emplacement est parfait, je recommande cet hébergement.

Le logement est situé dans un endroit parfait. De plus, en voiture, vous avez un parking très bon marché à moins de 5 min. L'entrée est très simple et Florence a très bien détaillé tout, elle est très attentionnée. Nous avons particulièrement aimé la décoration.
