Pros
Multiple restaurants and bars within 984.3 ft, including Pizzeria Romana Bio and Memmo Alfama Terrace

Close proximity to Time Out Market Lisboa (1 mile) and Commerce Square (1 mile)
Cons
Bathrooms are shared in most room types
Distance to airport requires transportation planning
“Alfama Guest House presents a challenging arrival with its six-floor walk-up and lack of luggage assistance; its location also makes taxi drop-offs difficult. I believe the reported state of cleanliness in the bathroom, kitchen, and lounge should give potential guests pause. This property needs significant improvements to justify its price.”
