Home truths
The building's courtyard garden and storage area are communal and therefore shared with the other residents. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.
Given the home's city location, you may hear some street noise throughout your stay.
There's only a small dining area here and the kitchen is compact. You'll find plenty of restaurants nearby, however.
There are no external windows in the bathroom. It lacks natural light.
We recommend skipping the car here and exploring Lisbon on foot or by public transport instead.

Local guide
About Alvalade
If you didn’t know Alvalade before, you’ll definitely leave raving about it. Technically on the outskirts of Lisbon, this district is a hidden gem away from the bustling centre. It’s away from the seven hills, so it’s blissfully flat – you can explore by bike or on foot without the cardio workout of the rest of the city. It’s also residential, so you get that neighbourhood feel – think families...
