Reviews

Staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel was unique and charming. Bring washcloths though, none onsite.
-
Great location and room. Lighting in common areas, cardboard in floor of lift, plumbing and electrical exposed, excessive construction noise in unit above us at 8AM (hammer and nails, metal grinding, etc) for over one hour. High risk for getting jumped since you have to find a light switch inside front door and hallways.
-
Rooms are small bedding could be more comfortable
-
Great location, with awesome walkable options- park access across the street, restaurant selection was nice, music at the park and enjoyable breakfast. Nothing
-
We liked the location. There was a great place where we had our lunch: POMME eatery with friendly staff and good food. Another good place to eat close to the hotel, very popular Tapisco. The personnel was very friendly and accommodating. The room’s windows had great sound proof, the apartment was quite. We had great AC working perfectly. Breakfast was quite good. All was very good.

Staff in attendance, door locks, clean, great breakfast Shower vents into bedroom and some mold buildup in stall.

The property was clean when we arrived for our nearly month long stay, except for the floor, which needed a mopping. Nearly everything needed for a stay of a few days is included, including a small bag of essentials like tiny packets of salt, pepper and olive oil, dish soap and dish sponge, laundry soap (for 1 load), dishwasher soap, plus shampoo and bath gel. While these are nice, there isn’t nearly enough for an entire month and they won’t be resupplied. Same goes for the towels and sheets. We don’t mind doing our own laundry of these items, and there is a washing machine/dryer combo, But a wash/dry cycle takes a minimum of 3 hours and you can only do small loads. They do not supply extra sheets or towels, but after a couple back-and-forth texts to the management company, they agreed to drop off an extra set. The location is great. Tucked away on a side street (walkable, but too narrow to be drivable) it is quiet and clean. Actually, the entire city is unbelievably clean, with shop owners and crews working in early mornings scrubbing down the pavement and picking up trash. The bed pillows are pretty hard, flat and uncomfortable, basically worn out, but the management company said there were no alternatives. We ended up going out and purchasing another set ourselves. No extra garbage bags, so you need to scout around town for your own there too. There is a center courtyard of sorts between all the apartment units (no seating) and a tiny one with a sky view next to the bedroom, but no “city view” as stated in the booking.com description, just a view of the inner courtyard. Nor is there a toaster as promised. There is a panini maker, but that won’t make toast. Wifi is great, but only in the living room. It doesn’t reach into the bedroom and constantly drops out at that location. You will end up googling how to operate the washing machine, range and other appliances. Although there are instruction manuals in the drawer, they are not English.

The breakfast was delightful, with very delicious coffee and pastries and more, and very lovely staff. Nothing. Everything was magical!
-
It felt as we were back in time - 18th century Lisbon. Such beautiful rooms - we stayed in one of the Royal Suites - the green one. Highly recommend.
-
Staff and management were very helpful and hospitable. Not a bog problem, but you must go up a one flight of a spiral staircase. If the elevator is out of service your luggage has to go up with you! The elevator was repaired during our stay so the trip out was easier than the trip in.
-
Location was THE ONLY good part about this place. THE ONLY The first room was dingy. It was scary to think that management/owner thinks this is acceptable on any level. The other room we got was no better. Maybe a tiny tad. Embarrassing to even let people stay in rooms like this. They promote is as “historical rooms” when in fact it’s has more of a neglected hostel vibe. Fake vent in an uncomfortably put in bathroom, leaking shower, 2 hangers for two people! Broken elevator for 3 days, so we had to drag our luggage downstairs from 3 flights of stairs ourselves. No one to help. No good accommodations as far as breakfast. Stale baked goods and cold coffee. Internet was off EVERY NIGHT and it was impossible to have anyone explain why and fix it. Towels are old and not soft at all. At the price we paid for this room, we could have had a true 5 star hotel in the USA.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff . Beautiful location Great breakfast
-
Very good locetion - nice area to walk around and even reach Barrio Alto by foot
-
Perfect location. Lovely Rooms. The rooms are not very sound proof to hallway (could hear anyone walking / talking / or if lights would come on in middle of night) No staff on site overnight - not an issue, but something to know. We had. a wonderful time here.

The location was terrific. Breakfast was very nice. The room was cozy, but smaller than the one shown in Booking.com. Being older, we believe some mold is in part of the wood window frame, but there were new windows and they offered a very nice stay.
