Great spot to explore Old Lisbon

A perfect spot to stay for our first visit to Lisbon. Carlota and a bottle of wine welcomed us in our arrival. Great communication and advice for our stay (ask about Fado!). We cooked some meals in the well-equipped kitchen and the laundry worked well. We even got to hang our clothes from the line outside the window like the natives! Short walk to the castle and the cathedral (<10 minutes). A bit further to the metro and a 20 minute walk from the Santa Apolonia train station. The stairs are crazy steep and narrow as others have noted. So it would be a tough spot for anyone with mobility issues or who likes to pack heavy.

Nice location in Alfama close to several attractions. Lot’s of space for a couple and even for a family. The weak electric capacity was something we did not know when doing the reservation. When checking in we were informed about the limited use of electric devices at the same time. For instance we couldn’t use the both heaters which were available.

Stairs

Apartment was very good however the stairs to the door of the apartment are very steep and tricky. As a senior it was difficult to maneuver up and down especially with luggage.

We stayed there for three days and for the first two days we were struggling to take a hot shower. The how water ran out after the first person took a 5 minutes shower and the rest of the group weren’t able to use the shower after we waited for an hour. We need to wait until the next day morning, and at night the water is cold again.

My Mother, Daughter, and I traveled Portugal

I travel extensively, and usually book local accommodations or small hotels. This trip was a very special one with my daughter (25) and mother(72). The apartment was very clean, exactly as described. Carlota met us at check in and explained all details to us, making sure we had no questions. Excellent service. Do be aware of the location, as there are steep stairs. It was a little difficult for Mom, and she is strong at 72. Would recommend if you like clean, simple, and steps are ok. 😄
