Alfama holiday apartment "Alfama Duplex" in Alfama

The apartment is very nice, fully equipped and has a great location: Alfama, in the best part of it, right between Porta do Sol and all the small, narrow streets that go down through that old and fascinating quarter of Lisbon, where you can take a walk in quietness and still feel the warmth of the locals, only sometimes coming cross some other tourists like you.
Only difference is that, staying in that apartment, you do't feel like a tourist, but like a local.
And the sight is splendid and romantic.
And that's one of the best things of that location!
Besides, the owners are very nice and the price is totally competitive if compared to anonymous big hotels or even small pensions with less personality than this comfortable apartment.
Don't hesistate, go for it!

Regarding the apartment, I really have nothing to complain about. It was perfect for our purpose, great location, central, not to mention very picturesques in the middle of the Lisbon Old Town, right next to one of the best Miraoudouros in town (or whatever it spells like) walking distance from most major attraction in Lisbon. All in all, great value for money, I have no hesitation in recommending it to any future Lisbon visitor.
Also, your kind assistance and patience with us was much appreciated.
Many many thanks for looking after us; really hope to have the chance to come back to Portugal; in the meantime, I'm advertising it madly to anyone in earshot.
Best Regards, Ileana

We absolutely loved our week in Lisbon and cannot wait to come again! Our duplex in Alfama was perfect - very comfortable, clean, well-equiped, well-maintained, we had no issues with anything - and when we did have a question, Roger always answered promptly. Apartment feels truly spacious - 3 of us never felt cramped inside - and round bed is definitely huge and comfortable (too comfortable in fact, waking up was difficult!). The round bed was a hit with our 9-yr old!
Location of the flat was perfect for us - public transport was just steps away, and if we felt like walking, we would just wander the little alleys and stairways downhill and eventually we'd find our way to the river... Alfama looks like the maze on the map, but it's actually surprisingly easy to navigate... and even getting temporarily lost is a good thing, as it always led us to new discoveries...
Information provided by Roger and Ana Paula on the website is very exhaustive and detailed - as I mentioned to Roger, he should add the info about tram #12, as we found that line quite useful, but otherwise, they really thought of everything. Even before we booked the flat, Roger answered all my pesky little questions (re. nearest supermarket, closing hours of the stores, etc) via email and encouraged me to ask anything else I might think of... :)
I am now telling anybody and everybosy who would listen about the fabulous stay we had in Lisbon and how great our apartment there was - and for our next visit, we will not bother looking any further - just hope that Roger and Ana Paula will have a vacancy for us!
