Great little hotel in a great location! Had a guest yelling out the window for about 15 minutes once. Also someone smoking on our floor. Permeated the room and was really strong in the hallway. Only happened once. Staff were tremendously helpful, got my wife an eyelash appointment in about 5 minutes right around the corner. Great restaurant recommendations too. Strong AC, very cool room.

Warm welcome from lovely staff, excellent location, very clean rooms, great shower, and nice to have a balcony. Very quiet despite a building refurb opposite. Also very easy access from airport by metro in 30 mins. Slept well despite the relatively firm mattress - but most Portuguese beds are rock hard! This wasn’t. Would come again.
