It's meant for a short stay, close to Casco Viejo and coast line. Clean bed and bathroom. Needs some maintenance. Beware, there's no hot water if that's a deal breaker for you.

The place is fine for staying just one night, at least that's what I thought. The hotel is ok, it's close to a metro station, has shampoo, soap and towels, it's got the basics. However, there was a tiny cockroach in the bed the morning after. The place can have whatever it might, but this puts it on the very bottom of the scale

The hotel is located next a casino and in a bad part of town. The rooms are old and dirty. The sheets are filthy and no hot water. Had to change rooms 3 times because of problems. The plaster walls are crumbling and the bathroom has cockroaches coming out of the shower drain. I will never recommend or stay in this place ever again . So disgusting.

Hotelbeschreibung Der Hotel liegt in einer sehr guten Lage – in der Nähe von allem, was man zum Einkaufen braucht, sowie von Metro- und Busverbindungen. Die Umgebung ist praktisch und gut erreichbar. Es handelt sich um ein Budget‑Hotel für Gäste mit kleinem Budget. Das Gebäude ist alt, und während des Aufenthalts gab es mehrere Stromausfälle. Die Klimaanlage funktioniert, ist jedoch sehr laut, was besonders nachts störend sein kann. Zu Fuß erreicht man problemlos die Altstadt, und die Promenade am Meer ist schön gestaltet und erstreckt sich über mehrere Kilometer. In Bezug auf die Sicherheit wirkt die Gegend sehr sicher, mit viel Polizei und offiziellen Sicherheitskräften in der Umgebung.
