Apartment as expected, host was very accommodating for check-in, no noise at all, and location was perfect.Only issue was a mold smell but it was after extreme rains, so I'm assuming it's not normally an issue. I just have to mention it because we felt we had to avoid spending time in the room when possible.I've heard this can be common here.

Wonderful place but had an issue with on going construction on our roof and next door. In all fairness, they did reimburse us for 2days for our troubles. Maria was incredibly responsive and apologetic for the issues so that was appreciated. As this was only a temporary situation I would highly recommend the space. Perfect area in Lisboa. But be aware it is four flights up and the area is quite hilly so if you have weak knees…

Great Location in Lisboa!

My husband and I stayed at this apartment in Lisbon and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect - in Old Town next to a metro line and the Parthenon. The flea market was also close by. The apartment was clean and the check-in process was simple. Maria was there to meet us, give us great restaurant recommendations and provide invaluable details on getting around Lisbon. Highly recommend the public transportation system! Overall a great stay!

Stay in Alfama

We had a lovely stay in this apartment in the Alfama district. The apartment looks exactly like the online images. It’s a short walk to the subway and a reasonable walk to many attractions in Lisbon. We needed to leave our luggage a little bit later because of the time of our train and the hosts were very accommodating! There was a great guidebook with helpful tips in the apartment. The air conditions worked well and the view La from the terrace were awesome!

Had a great experience in Lisbon staying at this comfortable and well located property. Quiet and private! The patio is really nice to have, Close to so many things. The stairs are steep so don’t disregard that if you have any knee issues or whatever going up 90 ish stairs to get up to the front door. No problem for me, but it could be for those not fit for it :-)

Perfect for a week in Lisbon.

Beautiful, lively neighborhood for our week stay in Lisbon. The location was close enough to walk to the city center during the day but quiet and calm in the evenings. Amazing view of the city from the terrace to boot. The stairs to the apartment are a bit of a workout but over all a great spot.

Perfect Alfama apartment

Great Alfama apartment just off a popular thoroughfare. Amazing views, nice open floor layout with modern touches. Quiet but close to everything. Susanna and Maria communicated well and often/ as needed. As other reviews mention, it's a bit of a climb to the 4th floor. But let's be honest, if you want to stay in and explore Alfama you'll be doing a lot more climbing than 4 flights of stairs! The district and the apartment are worth every step.

Very nice

The property is very clean, there are several beautiful but limited views. The four flights of stairs can be challenging if you are not in relatively decent shape but I enjoyed the breeze and being high in the building. While being deep in Alfama and surrounded by others it is surprisingly quiet. I do think you could sleep with the windows open. It is close to the Apolonia train station but is a decent walk to many attractions. I did not mind this as I enjoyed the journeys to and from. I never met Maria in person but she was very responsive via text. I would have enjoyed meeting her briefly but this may not be important to others. Also I enjoy being able to talk with someone regarding hidden gems so feel like that was a miss. Overall very enjoyable location and space.

Away in Alfama

We stayed here with our two kids. We have a 15 year old and a 4 year old. The apartment was gorgeous! It felt like a perfect combo of old and new. The location is amazing…it cannot be beat. The apartment is a HIKE up some stairs but it made it easy to justify the pastries and wine :) The check in process was good. I loved having access to a Washing machine especially when travelling with kids. I’d highly recommend!

Great location in an authentic and unique space

My family and I felt like were transported back in time and enjoyed the authentic and unique experience. The location was very convenient near the fado bars, restaurants, metro and bus lines. The old-world charm of the apartment added to the experience. We really didn't mind the 91 steps to the top as we were rewarded with a nice breeze and stunning views. The place has amazing character. There are minor aspects we overlooked like navigating around a lower ceiling when entering one side of the bed, a tight shower and a smaller bathroom. Overall, we felt these aspects were manageable as we were rewarded with the feeling of being transported to old world Lisbon.

A great stay!

We loved the apartment in Alfama--it had incredible views and it was in a great location. The neighbourhood and building are charming. It was a bit short on extra cutlery and glasses for three people (only one for each person). Not recommended for people with poor knees--the 90 stair climb was a bit challenging at the end of a long day :)

Spectacular!

I had such a superb time staying here. I’ve stayed at many locations too, and this was by far the best! Three sides of apartment have tremendous views of the Pantheon, sunrises over the Tagus River, and moon rises over the third. The bed and bedding was extremely comfortable. The location in Alfama was perfect for my traveling itinerary. Check-in with Maria went smoothly, professionally and comforting. I struggled wit my heavy suitcase and she was kind enough to help me carry it up! I can’t say enough about how wonderful my experience was, thanks to MArie and Susannah. Obrigada!

Very Tired

Firstly, please realize that this apartment is on the top floor of the building, up four flights of 21 steps (so, essentially up six “normal” flights. This is not a criticism of the apartment, just stating a fact you should know. If you have mobility issues or bad knees you may want to rethink staying here (or in Lisbon at all, for that matter! It is exceptionally hilly!) Once you have done the climb, you are treated to an amazing ing view of the Pantheon and the river. The flat was sympathetically renovated to highlight the rustic charm. That does seem to have been done some time ago, as the place is tired. The bedroom is in the eaves, so you must be careful not to bang your head. The paint job in the bedroom is just odd. The bed is incredibly low, so once again, consider your knees, as getting in and out with any mobility issues is a problem. This is actually the case with all the furniture, which is also tired. The patio with its amazing views has such potential! However, as it is with two metal chairs and a small metal table, it’s just depressing. The kitchen is not appropriately stocked with plates and glasses. For such a wonderful wine producing country, we were shocked to find only one wineglass in the kitchen!!! The plates are chipped and cracked. Communication with the hostess was very good, and the woman who checked us in was great. They allowed us to drop our bags before the cleaning was done, which was a great help. The location in Alfama is lovely. On the whole, with just a bit of care (and love) the flat could be a great place to stay for people that are fit. As it is, it needs some work

Solo traveler enjoying Lisbon's Alfama district

Beautiful apartment at the top of an historic building, perfect for one person or a couple, (perhaps with a young-ish child with lots of energy for stairs 😊). Idyllic views, and in a great Alfama district location. Be aware, the apartment has some petite features: the bathroom is not large, shower is quite modest, and the bedroom is built into a dormer with low angles along two sides. I say this only so you are aware--in case you are very tall or broad in size. ☺️ You will love the balcony! It is absolutely fantastic and very private. Another great bonus for long-term travelers is the washing machine! If you are making several stops in Portugal and you plan to launder your clothes, then you know how nice it is to have a washing machine! Susanna is a wonderful host, checking often before my arrival to ensure I had the information I needed. I never worried about anything. Last note...it's nearly 100 steps up to the apartment. And it's worth the effort. 😍

Alfama is the perfect location

Our stay at Sao Vicente was our first 5 day stay of 3 weeks in Portugal. It was situated in a great location with ocean views from the apartment and Susanna was an attentive and helpful host. It is tucked away from the busiest areas but close enough that you can be right in the middle of it, if that is what you are looking for. If your tall this apartment has some slopped roofs (especially the bedroom) so there will be some ducking and the shower is very small so if your a larger person….maybe not ideal. Come with a light load as this apartment is a climb. But all in all beautiful views, felt traditional and we did really like it.
