Nice place
The location is amazing with an ocean view. Right in the historic part of town with so many attractions at walking distance. Affordable, but the breakfast buffet can use some variety.

Located close to all the nightlife in the Alfama district. Maybe a bit too close to the cruise ship terminal. Front desk very helpful, AC in my room very good. The breakfast was bla, just cold stuff with horrible coffee. The coffee in the lobby is really good.

4 nights in Lisbon.
Really friendly hosts. Stay away from the overpriced patio restaurants on the block. Overpriced and cater to the cruise ships. Very small room. But nice clean sheets and towels everyday. It’s reasonably located to a lot of things and there is a subway nearby. Belem is definitely a ways but we truly spent one morning there. The area around the hotel was much more interesting. Only did breakfast once but it was good. A lot of choices but simple.

Bright and very clean hotel with friendly staff. Excellent location in Alfama so very close to lots of attractions but quiet at night. Lovely to be looking out at trees and riverside. Breakfasts very good and generous - especially appreciated the fresh fruit . Spacious bathroom
