About this property

Best in Alfama - Free pick up

Located in a quiet and charming street, just a few minutes from restaurants, fado bars, galleries, shops, beautiful viewpoints and outdoor cafes.
The apartment is on the first floor of a small residential building (no elevator), in a very friendly street near a lovely church next to a belvedere overlooking the river.
We have carefully prepared the apartment to make you feel comfortable and at home, so you can relax when you return from your daily explorations.

Bedding and towels are provided, as well as shower gel and hand soap.
There is also a hair dryer, a few books, free internet access through Wi-fi.

The kitchen is fully equipped and we always keep some basic items in the apartment for guests to use, like tea and coffee, sugar, biscuits and fruit.

We offer a free pick up at the airport, but if for some reason that doesn't happen, we'll be there to greet you personally at check-in anyway, explain how things work in the apartment and tell you all about our favorite spots in Lisbon, and specially in the neighborhood - there are lots of great places to eat, drink and visit nearby.

We're also available throughout your stay to answer questions and help with anything you may need.

Note: Alfama, as most of Lisbon’s historical centre, is hilly and as such can be a challenge for people with mobility issues.

Please consider that from January 1, 2016, the Lisbon City Council started to charge a tax of EUR 2 per visitor (over 13 years old) per night, up to a maximum of EUR 7 per guest, as a Tax Tourist. This is not included in the total price charged by VRBO and must be paid in cash at check-in or check-out.

Alfama amazing!
Host Pedro awesome! Met us at Fado museum across street from ship. Great location. Close to cruise ship port (5-10 min walk). This area is mostly cobblestone and stairs and uphill! So be prepared for that. Close to lots of restaurants, pastelarias, mini markets. This apartment is suitable for a couple as it is small. But kitchen has everything needed for a few days. Has washing machine. Enjoyed our stay! Hope to come back! Thank you Pedro!

Excellent location and host
Pedro was great and the pick up from airport was very convenient. Very clean and cozy. Everything I needed was there and I had no problems whatsoever. It is probably best for solo traveler, or a couple. It will be tight with 3 people, maybe fine with a small child. Fantastic central location near public transportation. Lots of hills - I will echo what has been said before in prior reviews - be prepared to walk, climb stairs, sweat, run out of breath and generally get your steps in. It is well worth it in my opinion. No need to hit the gym. Very unique and old part of town with great cafes, markets, restaurants and pastelarias. But certainly a consideration for the elderly, disabled, and the lazy.

The property was very clean and situated in the Alfama district. Host provided everything we needed for comfort including a Brita Filter water pitcher which saved us from having to buy water bottles for use during our stay. That was incredibly helpful. Pedro also graciously picked us up at the airport and brought us directly to the property which we greatly appreciated.

Beautiful Alfama
The apartment was perfectly located in Alfama area. With its narrow and climbing streets. Fado heard everywhere around us. Pedro was very kind to pick us up at the aeroport and bring us to the apartment through those narrow and winding streets. We wouldn’t have able to find it ourselves. It was quiet except when the people on top floor started moving around. The only window that opened had the view of roof tops but Pedro provided us with a couple of fans which we had working all the time. We appreciated having the laundry machine and dried the clothes outside or on drying racks provided. Bathroom had everything we needed but shower was very very tight. Everything is closer than you think. We used the Fado museum (2 mins walk down) as a reference point for all directions. Train station Santa Apalonia and its subway station are a short walking distance too. When taking flight back home it was quite easy to walk with our luggage to the subway and take a direct route to the aeroport. Thank you Pedro for your hospitality.
