Alfama Downtown Apartments

Absolutely nothing. Nothing was as photographed, and it was not cleaned when we arrived, and had to spend our first night on the sofa.

Nothing was as photographed, and it was not cleaned when we arrived, and had to spend our first night on the sofa. Host wasn't apologetic, and we had to spend the whole night on the phone to booking.com.

Location

The bad smell of the sewers The microwave was dirty we couldn’t use it.

Host was nice

In the whole apartment was a continuous pipe smell. It was not clean, and the bathroom was so smelly that you could not be there for a too long time, moreover it was a big cockroach in it.

Good location nice area with good choices for food and drink nearby. Clean and well presented

It’s hard to use the shower without ending up with water spilling quite a lot in the bathroom

The lo

Location great & loved view of narrow lane & micro square from flat Clean flat & kitchen well-equipped

Flat is basic & simple & I thought it is over priced A mouse came in from the lane outside - on one occasion in kitchen, it saw me & ran behind washing mashine! The mouse comes by simply running under the wide gap under door! I had to put 3 books against doir gap when in flat & push a rolled newspaper in when I was goung out! Very simple for landlord to sort this problem Found it very difficult to get in flat & instructions from landlord were difficult to understand & referred to key in "safe"! Its actually a lock box which Ive never seen before Very noisy from 8am onwards so not easy to have a lie in!!!

The apartment was located in a very nice area, close to the center and to a lot of attractions easily reachable after a short walk. The room was comfy and fresh air came through the windows, as well as some free fado music every night!

Sometimes a bad smell of mold came from the bathroom. We suspect a pipe issue, anyway it's manageable by opening the windows as soon as possible

Location was amazing, the bed was comfortable, key easy to retrieve, and the host was response and texted a few times to make sure we had gotten in ok, etc. The place was reasonably clean, as in, someone had come in to clean it and there wasn't dirt or dust anywhere.

The bathroom door didn't close all the way because it has been damaged due to water/steam. The kitchen had a dead cockroach in one of the cupboards. We found another cockroach in the living area on our second night. The downstairs neighbor rang our bell at 3am one night. The sofa bed is broken.
