Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a quiet area, close to various points of interest and shopping streets. The rooms are not very fresh but are spacious, and the staff is gentle and helpful. The dining options lack variety, but the hotel offers what you need after a day of walking. The centrality to tourist sites is hard to beat.
The hotel was cozy and felt like home, with very cute and spacious rooms offering a comfortable stay. The friendly service made my first visit to Portugal most welcoming, although parking assistance was lacking. The location was perfect, being centrally situated near transportation hubs and tourist attractions.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nice and clean, but they lacked a relaxing atmosphere with just basic amenities. However, the perfect location with views of a beautiful garden and a comfortable bed made up for it. The service was friendly overall, though there were some instances of lack of professionalism. The central location near cafes and attractions was a definite plus, but the dining options were limited. The facilities met expectations for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is incredibly well-located, near the downtown area and various amenities. The rooms are spacious, clean, and ready early for check-in, although they face the bar's roof area. The service is friendly and helpful, with apologies offered generously. The dining experience is average, with fair options but room for improvement in variety.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms, although smaller than expected, were well-equipped and had a charming touch. The service was professional and friendly, and the staff made me feel welcomed. The location was good, not right in the center but still convenient for exploring the city. The dining options were simple but enjoyable. Overall, a comfortable and tidy hotel with a friendly atmosphere.
The hotel offers a mix of antique and spacious rooms but lacks modern dining options. The service is helpful and friendly, making up for some dated facilities. The central location provides easy access for both sightseeing and shopping.
I absolutely loved the typical charm of this independently run hotel, offering great value for money. The two separate bedrooms were a convenient touch, although being street-side, it didn't turn out as quiet as expected.
My stay at the hotel was surprisingly comfortable with spacious rooms that were clean and inviting. The staff was welcoming, and they easily accommodated my request for a double bed. While the surrounding area offered great dining options within walking distance, there were some aspects that needed improvement, making my overall experience mixed.
