Filipa’s apartment was a perfect home base for exploring the Alfama and Chiado neighborhoods of Lisboa on foot. Plenty of restaurants and coffee shops close by as well as a well stocked grocery store. Filipa was a welcoming and responsive host.

For a couple or solo traveler this is a perfect apartment. The flat was well appointed, accessible and clean. And as an older traveler I appreciated the elevator after climbing the hills of Lisbon. The location couldn't be better to reach all of the major attractions of the city, restaurants and grocery store. Everything is just steps away. Don't miss the Pollux department store which has a spectacular rooftop restaurant with views of the city. Filipa was an excellent hostess. I would definitely stay here again!

Best host, lovely apartment, great location!

Well maintained clean property well located for transport links, easy to get everywhere. Our host Fillipa went above and beyond with checkin/out arrangements and communication to ensure our stay was as enjoyable as possible.

Filipa was great, very welcoming and full of advice. Apartment was very good and in the perfect location, plenty big enough and fully equipped.

We were delighted to find our gorgeous apartment was even nicer than the photos, and just the right size for a stay for two people. A really well equipped kitchen and comfortable bed . Right in the middle of all the action, so really close to a lot of the attractions, but far enough away to avoid the tourist bustle. Filipa was such a beautiful host and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable - including a long wait for our late arrival. It was the most wonderful introduction to our trip to Portugal, and I would recommend it highly for anyone looking for a cosy hideaway in Lisboa’s historical neighbourhood.

After getting our bearings, and learning how to get to the Metro, train, and tram stations from the apartment, we realized what a gem this apartment was. The stairwell down to restaurant/shopping district, Santa Justa elevator, and Rossio square right next to the door, and the tram 28 stop (Martim Moniz) a few blocks down the street. We saw everything we wanted to and then some, all accessed by public transportation (even Azenhas do Mar by train to Sintra and 1 bus). Do not get advanced tickets to Peña Palace, but get there early- we saw plenty of unhappy tourists not getting entry after paying for tickets, the entry gives you a half hour window to get to the entrance which is a good 20 minute walk uphill, and if you miss it too bad for you. You also have to by a 12.50 Euro for 24 hr bus pass to get to Pena Palace and other castles (stop at Moorish castle before Peña Palace- you have to go back down the hill to catch the other bus to Quinta da Regaleira which you can use the 24hr bus pass you paid for. We used mostly Green and Blue metro lines, and the train from either Rossio or Cais do Sodre- please research how to get to the places you want to see on public transportation, you do NOT want to drive in Lisbon. Don’t be dumb and wear heels, wear good quality athletic shoes. Hostess Filipa was helpful with restaurant recommendations, greeting us with pasteis de nata, and recommending using Uber app for airport transfer, and Pingo Doce a grocery for quick breakfast and beer.

Perfect in center of old town, walking distance to popular restaurants and attractions ❤️
