Alfama - 2 Level Apartment With A Stunning View

The apartment is in an old building and fully renovated by us. We knocked down many walls to create an open and airy feeling throughout the apartment. The terrace was a key feature for us when we bought the place and we have spent many lovely mornings, lunches and evenings there admiring the views and letting the Lisbon sun in. The roof window on the second floor ads to airiness. We love cooking together, and since there are so many great food products available in Portugal, we created a kitchen that is made for team cookings. Lots of space and a kitchen island makes it a great place to be together. The kitchen is integrated in the living room making that area the natural hub for friends and family. Alfama, the old town with its myriad of alleys and lanes, bars and restaurants are just outside the door. Explore the Castle, the Pantheon and the Monastery by foot and take the chance to buy some antiques at the Feira de Ladra (Lisbon's biggest and best flea market). The metro is only 200 meters away from the apartment and gives you easy access to all Lisbon's attractions and there are buses on the street itself getting you out to Expo is 15 minutes.

the good and the bad
The Good: The place is in a great location and check in was easy. The place has all the modern conveniences. The Bad: The place smells moldy and the towels after one shower smell of mold. The shower curtain was gross and moldy. The second and third room mattresses need to be replaced. The unit was a bit cold and no heating. There were dead bees in the unit and all over in the hallways. I know it is hard with old buildings. We still enjoyed seeing Lisbon.

Spacious, great views and location
Our first trip to Lisbon. The location is very close to the harbor/train station so incredibly easy to get to. We walked to many locations, including nearby train, metro and hop on/off tour bus (Green line stop 11.) The backyard patio is incredible. Good common area with kitchen/dining/living integrated so we could all spend time together. The host was very easy to communicate with and made the trip a joy.

Perfect trip to Lisbon
If you are looking for a place to stay in Lisbon, look no further! This property was functional, beautiful, and in a perfect location for exploring the city. You are a 5 min walk from the metro/train, on a block with many restaurants/bars/shops, and the view from the roof is spectacular. We were a group of 5 adults and everyone felt right at home. Keep in mind the property is on the third floor so be prepared for steps. Lisbon itself is hilly so really not the end of the world! Communication with the host was smooth and the property was as described. Would absolutely return here if we came back to Lisbon!!!

Spacious apartment in a great location!
Our family of 5 enjoyed this apartment. There was plenty of space for everyone and the suite upstairs was perfect. The balcony off the upstairs suite was very nice and had a great view of the church nearby. Having a washer and dryer was convenient. Communication with the owner was easy. We highly recommend this apartment!

Wasn't cleaned and had an unsafe staircase!
Horrible experience! The place was not cleaned from the previous guests (at all!), and the staircase up to the unit was pitch black and not safe. The owners did not take responsibility to take care of these issues. We arrived early (12:30) to drop off our bags. First, the staircase lights weren't working. It was total darkness with narrow/steep stairs and very dangerous. When we got up to the unit, the cleaners weren't there and the place hadn't been cleaned. We called the owner to tell him about the staircase lighting and that the place wasn't cleaned yet, and he said he'd call the cleaners. We went off for the afternoon and came back at 5:15 (check in was at 4:00), fully expecting the lighting to be taken care of and the unit to be ready for us. We had been traveling for almost 24 hours and just wanted to go to bed. Nothing had been done! The staircase was still pitch black. In the unit it was used bedsheets, dirty towels on the bathroom floor, pizza boxes and a dirty rag on the counter, etc. We called the owner again and emphasized that we have two young kids who need to sleep. He just said he'd call the cleaners to come. We ended up being there until 9:00 at night, first waiting for the cleaners (never came), then contacting VRBO, then scrambling to find two hotel rooms to accommodate family on short notice. The cleaners never showed up and the owner never once followed up with us, which shows a total lack of responsibility.

Great space in a convenient Location!
Very cute apartment within walking distance to a lot of spaces. The location managers were great with communication and were very flexible. Heads up- you have to go up several flights of stairs that are not lit so we always had to have our phone flashlight out and it was hard for my older mother. Other than that small nuance- 10/10!

Great location, lovely appartment
We stayed here for just a few days but had an amazing stay. The kitchen was great for cooking and the appartment is spatious and practical. The terrace has an iconic view and is great for having a drink in the evening. The location is perfect as well as the appartment is really central in the Alfama neighbourhood which contains a lot of beautiful buildings and streets.

Great location in Alfama
This is a very comfortable property if you are a seasoned European traveler. Yes, the stairs are tricky-it's a very old building. We were lucky with parking all three days we were there. You may not be, but there is a parking garage not too far away. As others stated, the main bathroom has a short ceiling, you just work around it. We loved it and the location!

Family Christmas vacation
The apartment was just what we wanted. It was very clean, stocked kitchen. Just perfect. The views were awesome. The host was easy to deal with. She responded right away. I will say after reading the negative review below i was a little nervous but this place is nothing like he described. We never felt unsafe ever! The steps are a little narrow but not dangerous. There are light switches on each floor, so no need to panic if it shuts off. Everything is within walking distance. Such a great apartment in a great location!! You will not be sorry if you plan your next vacation here!!

Overall terrible experience
Let me try to be as fair as I can. Our difficulty began when trying to even gain access to the property. It is located in a place that is not suitable to reach by car on the weekends. The main road into the area was barricaded off with no access, trying another route ran us into an active flea market with no access. The hosts essentially shrugged off our concerns as she was "out driving". We ended up moving construction barricades to get to the property where there was no place to park or unload our luggage. After double parking we entered the building and where we quickly realized the place was not as advertised. The plaster was coming off the walls in the stairwell and there were several stairs that were broken. My wife nearly fell when the wood step just popped up. She also immediately started dealing with allergy issues related to dust and possible molds. The neighborhood is very old, which is fine, but did not feel safe for my wife and our guests. Dragging luggage up to the top floor on uneven and wobbly steps didn't inspire confidence. We reached to the host with our concerns and were basically blown off. I am a host and own several of my own properties and was willing to negotiate an equitable settlement as we could not stay in an unsafe environment and one that was causing an allergic reaction. I still have not gotten a response so do not recommend this host for anyone. The place could be great with a little TLC and better instructions.
