Older hotel, furnished in a vintage style. Nice and friendly staff however there is room for improvement: Wifi not great Hot water runs out in shower very quickly Not informed about how to contact front desk with any issues, no phone in the room Very small elevator, like a closet so if you have lots of luggage or mobility issues, be wary Breakfast staff friendly, choices limited, but nice to have

5 stars all around!

This hotel was so cool! Really charming decor inside, and the location was great. The breakfast spread was very good every morning, and the rooftop bar was so much fun. They held our bags before we could check in and after we checked out; Shakira was so helpful during check-in! Will definitely be staying here again when I come back to Lisbon and would definitely recommend to someone else.

Plenty of hot water in the shower and the AC worked well. Front desk staff was great at helping with directions. I would have like a tea pot in the room, as neither of us drink coffee. Overall enjoyed our stay.

If you are a tall or XL person, it is diffcult to stand &/or sit on the toilet with the door closed, as the stalls are very small. The washing machine is convenient as it adds detergent, but the dryer ran for 1 hour and left my clothes very damp. There was no heat, despite selecting the highest heat setting. Also there are little (human) mice that ate 1/2 of my food in the refrigerator, despite it being labeled with my name and check out date. I guess they were in need of a meal.

A very nice place in an area of Lisbon that has a lot of night life and dining options. Though it's not right in the center of Lisbon's attractions it is very easily reached by buses and trollies that make the uphill location easily accessible. Breakfast is served in the main restaurant and has lots of choices and a cooked to order option. I would stay again!
