The steep streets of Alfama, one of Lisbon’s oldest areas, are lined with shops selling traditional crafts and cafes. Passengers pack the historic no. 28 tram, which winds through Alfama on its way up to 11th-century São Jorge Castle. Views from Miradouro da Graça terrace stretch over the city to the River Tagus. In the evening, melancholy Fado music can be heard in some of the area's long-running restaurants.
Santiago is a charming neighbourhood located in the heart of Lisbon. This district is known for its winding cobblestone streets, picturesque alleyways and stunning architecture. The Castelo de S. Jorge and Santa Justa Lift are two of the most popular attractions in Santiago, while the Lisbon Cathedral, Arco da Rua Augusta and National Pantheon are also well worth a visit. In addition, the Mercado de Santa Clara and Botanical Garden of Lisbon are both worth a visit if you're looking for something to do in the area.
My apartment resides in a quiet residential street lined with historical townhouses which have been converted into apartments
The closest tram stations within walking distance of my home are Limeoira and Miradouro Sta. Luzia, which are both on the same street, Rua Limoeiro.

A block away from the castle on a relatively quiet street. The amazing location was definitely the highlight of this apartment. Easy check-in process, made our stay in Lisbon very enjoyable. A few doorknobs were missing, but that certainly didn’t cause any problems.
Couldn’t want for a better location. Authentic, characterful, multi-roomed apartment in the heart of the Alfama.
Only thing to note which isn’t clear on the listing is that while there are 4 bedrooms, only 3 have independent access. The 4th is a single room only accessible via one of the other double bedrooms- so that wouldn’t work for groups of adults sharing.
But a lovely, well-located, v clean apartment. We had a great time.
The apartment was a good fit for our group of 5. For an old building in an old part of the city, things operated as one should expect. Things are noisy and a little clunky though not without their charms. The shower in the private bathroom is truly not usable for more than a very brief rinse. Uber does not know how to get to the address and will drop you off a couple blocks away. We found that directing them to drop off at Museo Teatro Romano was reliable and an easier walk. The beds were comfortable, the location clean. We did lose power for a few hours and a representative was quick to reach through a phone call. The neighborhood was very nice, quite touristy. We would stay here again.
The unit was exactly as promised with all amidites. The issue was the construction that started at 8am the first morning of our stay when we were hoping to sleep in. The construction stopped at a reasonable time in the evening but then the person upstairs decided to get their 10,000 steps in for the day with shoes on and did not stop until just after midnight. The second day was heavy stone work construction all day but we went out in the afternoon. The night was quiet thank goodness as we had an early flight back to Canada in the AM.

Great location, cleanliness left something to be desired.
I want to start off by saying that the property itself was very beautiful and in a great location.
That being said, upon coming in after an entire night spent at the hospital, I initially didn’t care to notice that the beds were unmade, and that the trash in all areas were not picked up. I was recovering from a head injury, so I wasn’t as acutely aware as my friends about the condition of the place until I finally got up a few days later to check out the apartment. That’s when I realized that this place was probably not cleaned prior to our arrival. There were also some floor stains in the kitchen. I got the overall impression that nothing was cleaned from the previous occupants.
I messaged the host about this and he did respond promptly and got the place cleaned. I just lament that this all happened on our last day of our stay, so we were potentially sleeping in prior used bed sheets for a few nights.
My only hope is that there is quality control next time and they verify that the place is cleaned after the checkout of every guest.

A quiet location in a busy tourist area. The apartment layout worked well for us (2 adults, 2 teenagers). The en-suite bathroom is very small and the kitchen has the bare minimum of crockery and utensils.
It was a fantastic location but they neglected to mentioned that the “4th bedroom” was in fact just a glorified closet attached to the 3rd bedroom. The bed was small which they disclosed but that was all they mentioned.
Great location, the unit is clean and fully stocked. Love the layout and the character of the place.
Great location, the unit is clean and fully stocked. Love the layout and the character of the place. The kitchen is awesome with the gas cook top. I will stay here again
Perfect size for our group - everyone had their own room
Great location for exploring the neighborhoods of Lisbon

Couple things that could improve the visit
Toilet paper
Residential parking stickers
Paper towels
Welcoming binder
Information on fuse box. We blew the circuit, spent 15 minutes looking for the panel
Love the location. Good layout for 4 to 6 people. Lots of dishes. Hot water on demand is nice. Only a couple things to note. If you run the space heaters on high, it will trip the main breaker for the entire unit. The reset switch is in the panel behind the big clock on the living room wall. Press the orange button for at least 3 seconds and you'll be good to go. Even though we rented this on vrbo, the whole process is moved to a third-party website so that was kind of annoying. But worked fine
The place was good - clean and comfortable. The location was fantastic.
Do NOT bring a car. You cannot access this place unless you are in a taxi. This was not told to us beforehand. The company takes hours to respond. I was also treated very rudely by their staff when I was asking about car access. She asked if I wanted to cancel (three times!) instead of helping me. We ended up dragging our four large pieces of luggage up a hill on cobblestone streets. They finally responded to my question about parking about 18 hours later. Really poor communication. Made the whole process unpleasant and frustrating.
The second bathroom should only be listed as a half bath. The shower is TINY and really not usable unless you are a small child.
Overall, not the best experience and I would look elsewhere in the neighborhood if you are driving or need two functional bathrooms.
Tout était conforme au descriptif. Personne très réactive a chaque demande. Emplacement très central de l appartement pour découvrir lisbonne. Il pourrait y avoir un peu plus de vaisselle par contre

Leider laut und z.T. verbesserungswürdig
Die Lage haben wir direkt ausgesucht. Erreichbarkeit mit Bus, Bahn und Taxi sind OK, Restaurants und großer Supermarkt sind nicht weit weg.Leider ist es vor allem am Wochenende bis nach Mitternacht sehr laut, da Durchgangsverkehr von Autos und Feiernden.Die Müllabfuhr kommt jede Nacht pünktlich um Mitternacht um die Tonnen vor den Haus zu leeren, da wird es kurzfristig laut.Sehr störend sind die Bewohner in der drüberliegenden Wohnung, Getrampel, Gepoltere und Krach bis nachts um 1 und wieder ab kurz vor 5. Entweder Absicht oder einfach rücksichtslos... Nachtschlaf war leider sehr gestört.Die Wohnung selbst ist eher eng und dunkel. Die meisten Türen und Fenster lassen sich nicht ordentlich schließen, alt und knallen beim Lüften ständig zu.Die Ausstattung ist für den Preis sehr mau...3 Tassen, eine Handvoll Besteck, keine Geschirrhandtücher. Abwaschen kann man eigentlich nur mit Geschirrspüler, Tabs muss man selber kaufen, ebenso nur Kaffeekapselmaschine natürlich ohne Tabs. Keine Müllbeutel, kein Minimum an Salz, Pfeffer, Öl....muss man alles kaufen. Kochen ist mit den Utensilien kaum möglich.Störend fanden wir den Geruch in der Wohnung. Es riecht dauerhaft muffig, die Abflüsse stinken zuweilen sehr.Eigentlich hat die Wohnung Potential, wird aber in Zustand und Ausstattung vernachlässigt....für den Lärm kann der Anbieter nichts, aber wer hier ungestörte Nachtruhe erwartet, sollte ein anderes Quartier buchen. Uns haben die Mängel leider doch sehr gestört bei dem Preis.

Wir waren 5 Arbeitskollegen und Freunde. Das Apartment ist sehr groß und auch bei heißen Temperaturen kühl. Die Lage ist perfekt.
Es gibt allerdings einige Sachen die erneuert werden könnten. Eine Türklinke ist locker und fällt runter wenn man die Tür schließen möchte und eine Handtuch Halterung im Bad ist ebenfalls locker. Im Kleinen Badezimmer war es auch sehr schwer zu duschen da sonst das ganze Bad unter Wasser stand.
Trotz dessen, würden wir jederzeit wieder kommen.
Auch die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war sehr freundlich und schnell.

Apartment is in a great location for tourist who don't mind walking around as the fort is very close and going down town is literally down the hill.
