Very good

A small compact flat up a narrow flight of stairs but welcoming, clean and characterful. Ideal location in heart of Alfama. Very helpful personal guidebook to Lisbon provided in room. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay here.
Great area to stay in -very vibrant- excellent restaurant-40 steps from the apartment..
Walking distance to everything..highly recommended -excellent food and wine..
Grocery store very close ..apartment needs an outside number -28 - wonderful city ..can’t wait to come back …
The apartment is petite and just what we needed whilst in Lisbon. It is in the perfect spot and very easy to get to from public transport. The only issue we did have was that there was a little noise at night given that it is located in a bustling neighbourhood (and in particular given we arrived during a month of street festivals) and the head of one of the beds (which are two beds joined into a king) was broken so it was completely sunken at one end. We did otherwise very much enjoy the homeliness of Francesca’s apartment.

If Judith had contacted me during her stay, she could have informed me about the bed and the person in charge of maintenance would have intervened quickly. Of course, now the bed is fixed!

An excellent location cobblestone streets easy access to reasonably priced cafe and restaurants bars. You need to have a good level of fitness to take full advantage of the myriad of lanes , stairs and view points that are on offer here.
Communication with the property owner Florence was via the Vrbo app , her response time to our questions was timely and appropriate. Florence provided a informative and accurate concierge booklet .
It is advisable to take an umbrella when visiting Lisbon !

A lot of stairs to get to the property. To get to the third floor apartment, there are three flights of very narrow stairs. This made it very difficult to get our luggage up and down. Very small shower but water pressure was excellent. Outside pedestrian noise easily heard from inside apartment. Nice apartment close to many activities but the stairs were an issue for us.
The only good thing about this flat is the nice location! For the rest it was one of the worst experiences we had. As soon as we entered we immediately noticed the bad smell and realized that there was mould and dampness in the walls. It was really hard to breathe! So we had to sleep with the windows open. But because of the central location, there was a lot of noise and it was impossible to sleep. The flat is dirty, that dirt which accumulates over time when you don't clean it well and which you can't get rid of with a superficial cleaning. Communication with the owner was quite difficult because she doesn't live in Portugal and because she doesn't speak English but uses google translate as she said. it's really a pity because the flat has potential but it needs renovation

Thank you for highlighting the excellent location of this apartment, which is indeed one of its main assets.
In order to establish the truth about your stay, I think it is useful to add that you had the cleaning team moved, plus a maintenance agent and that you tried to obtain a refund citing minor or non-existent problems: humidity (the humidity level in Lisbon during your stay was +90%, the whole atmosphere was humid and not the apartment), traces of humidity in the apartment (the cleaning team moved on same day to clean 2 traces on the ground), outside noise (I reminded you that the announcement clearly says that this district is the liveliest in Lisbon), WIFI code (you had not read my welcome message telling you where find all the necessary information, you disconnected the box!), the key to the front door of the building did not work (you had a maintenance agent moved while the door works very well with the code, you prefer a key!).
I would add that I answered all your messages in English and within a minute, even late in the evening. I make it a point of honor to respond to each request as soon as possible.
I can understand that this apartment is not suitable for you, but do not blame me for the lack of preparation for your stay. You have not studied the ad enough, this studio in this typical restored 17th century Alfama building is not for you. A brand new hotel would be more in line with your level of requirement …. but perhaps more in your prices!

Die Wohnung extrem eng, nur zum Schlafen geeignet. Extrem laut tags und nachts.
Nur geeignet für wenige Tage. Extrem eng, kein Platz für die Koffer usw. Schlafen nur mit Ohrstöpsel möglich. Das Bett war ok. Die zweite Decke allerdings mit Löchern und der Bezug viel zu groß, sodass die Decke ständig rausfiel. Die Kaffeemaschine war nicht zu benutzen, da total verkalkt. Für eine Tasse Kaffee brauchte man eine halbe Stunde. Es gab auch keine Filtertüten und nicht mal einen Lappen zum Tisch abwischen. Normalerweise sind solche Dinge vorhanden. Bisher hatte ich in Portugal nur gute Erfahrungen mit Ferienwohnungen. Diese kann ich nicht weiterempfehlen.

Schade, dass Gabriele sich nicht die Zeit genommen hat, mich über die Details zu informieren, die sie während ihres Aufenthalts gestört haben, denn ich hätte sie sehr leicht beheben können, indem ich ihr gesagt hätte, wo sie sie finden kann, oder indem ich das Reinigungs- oder Wartungsteam eingeschaltet hätte. . Gabriele zog es vor, auf keine meiner Nachrichten zu antworten, also ging ich davon aus, dass bei ihr alles in Ordnung sei. Bezüglich der Größe der Wohnung und der Umgebung gehe ich davon aus, dass Gabriele der Beschreibung der Anzeige die gleiche Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt hat wie meinen Nachrichten, da alle diese Details in der Anzeige enthalten sind und für denjenigen, der sorgfältig auswählt, keine Überraschung möglich ist!

Está bien comunicado, no obstante, no tiene aire acondicionado, solo un ventilador de torre sucio que apenas funciona y el lavabo es muy muy pequeño. A parte de esto, tuvimos problemas a la hora de pagar el alojamiento, ya que expedia solo hace de intermediario entre booking y el propietario. Y en lugar de cobrarte ellos y luego hacer lo que tengan que hacer como intermediario, te hacen a ti bajarte una app para pagar al propietario directamente. (No me parece bien que no se avise de esto).
L'appartement est bien situé, bien équipé, mais il était trop petit. Le vrai souci était qu'il était extrêmement sonore, on entendait les conversations des personnes en dessous, des jeunes qui en plus étaient très très bruyants, nous avons même du intervenir pour qu'ils se calment. Et l'appartement situé au dessus était très mal insonorisé aussi, on entendait tous les pas résonner chez nous. A la fin du séjour une famille avait loué les deux appartements, nous étions entre les deux, et ils se parlaient à 22h à travers l'escalier... Bref les boules Quiès qui étaient sur nos tables de nuit a5notre arrivée, mauvais signal, on confirmé que la location est faite en connaissance de cause. Et ont confirmé leur nécessité. Très mauvaises nuits et aucune intimité. Donc mauvais souvenir. Nous ne recommanderons pas cette location.

Je suis heureuse que vous ayez apprécié l'emplacement de cet appartement, c'est effectivement son point fort. Je vous ai demandé à plusieurs reprises si tout allait bien pour vous sans jamais recevoir de réponse. C'est dommage car si j'avais été alertée je serais intervenue auprès de vos voisins particulièrement bruyants lors de votre séjour. Le non respect des règles de bon voisinage est un motif d'annulation de séjour, ce seul argument permet de régler ce désagrément...et vous aurait permis de passer un agréable séjour.
Logement bien situé dans l Alfama.
Immeuble très ancien avec trois locations (pas d'insonorisation , on entend tout à travers le parquet) et lieux de fête à proximité.
Malgré les boules quies fournis par la propriétaire, les nuits peuvent être difficiles.

Je suis désolée d’apprendre que vos voisins ont été bruyants, je ne maîtrise pas ce paramètre, mais ils auraient certainement fait des efforts s’ils avaient été informés de la gêne qu’ils occasionnaient, par vous ou par moi ( si vous m’aviez alerté sur ce point).
En effet, toutes les habitations de l’Alfama sont d’anciennes maisons de pêcheurs datant du 16ème siècle. L’architecture est typique, c’est généralement ce qu’apprécient les guests choisissant de loger dans ce quartier très prisé.
De plus, lors de nos échanges avant la validation de votre réservation, j'ai répondu que le quartier est plutôt vivant à votre question sur le calme. Vous avez donc effectué votre réservation en connaissance de cause. Je ne peux que vous conseiller, à l'avenir, de choisir votre logement, dans des quartier réputés calmes et donc moins vivants et pittoresques.
Fantastic location in gear of Alfama. Little apartment perfect for two people. Close to public transit. Only negatives: can be noisy at night and limited hot water.

Fantastic location
This flat’s strength is its location: right inside the Alfama district, a warren of narrow streets packed with great and interesting restaurants, shops and people’s homes. You cannot drive to the front door, so be prepared to haul your suitcases uphill for awhile. It was easy enough, but uphill is uphill. At the time, our hosts were out of town, which can effect response time if something goes wrong. It is a lively area — which we loved — but it never got too loud or prevented us from sleeping. Upon our arrival, the flat was very clean and we found an AMAZING book of important information on everything: how to use public transport, important phone numbers, grocery store locators, places to shop and recommend restaurants and dishes to order. That book is quite the achievement and was super useful. This flat is a good value and staying there will give you an authentic Alfama experience.

Logement trop petit, bruyant et sommaire mais bien situé
Le lit est bon mais l’apparte ment est tellement petit que 2 valises par terre ne permettent plus de bouger. L’equipement general est faible. Beaucoup de bruit à l’intérieur et à l’exterieur de l’immeuble.
Lisbonne est une ville super et notre séjour reste agréable grâce à elle.
