Pros:

It’s a good value for the price - when you book in advance.
Basic furniture, no air conditioner or fan - luckily it’s not too hot.
Having the shower in the bedroom is a plus.
Sharing the bathroom wasn’t too bad.
The building is old, and the elevator not always work.

Pros:

The quality of the room was very poor, there were stains on the bedsheet. We also saw a cockroach in the hallway. The area is loud, with all the noise from the street making it nearly impossible to fall asleep.

We were happy to only be staying here for 1 night as it wasn’t ideal.

Pros:

Good location in Chiado area, close to all Services. Not particularly bad, ok to spend a couple of nights. Bed is comfortable, clean sheets and towels. Old building with bad insulation but the noise from the street and other rooms was ok after midnight until 8a.m.
Bathroom is basic but good enough to feel comfortable (Room with prívate one)

Pros:

Found a cockroach the second I opened the door. It's understandable given that it seems to be a pretty old building and is in the center of the city. But it definitely made the stay unpleasant. Not a bad place to spend one or two nights in, but would not recommend for a longer stay.

Pros:

It may have been more our fault than that if the property. It’s a short step up from a hostile. It’s fine if you’re a young person travelling on a budget. It’s not suitable for older couples or families.

Disgusting, don’t book. Read review.
Pros:

Horrible experience! Don’t listen to bot reviews. Booked the most expensive room and walked into a room that smelled like curry (from Ghadhi Palace), and septic from attached bathrooms. So gross, stayed one night and woke up to 3 mosquito bites on my arm and a nasty yellowish, swollen spider bite on my wife’s. Stayed second night at another hotel. Not sure how to submit a chargeback on my CC.

Pros:

Perfectly serviceable place to stay. Nothing fancy, but I had no issues. It’s a very touristy area but this street is a bit quieter than others nearby. I enjoyed my stay.

Pros:

The property is at very good location and lots of cafe’s restaurants nearby. The only downside for me was i was able to hear everything that was happening upstairs or in the passage because of thin walls. The staffs are really nice and helpful.

Simple, but does the job. Excellent location!
Pros:

The hotel is simple but serves its purpose. The only notable downside was the lack of a mirror in the room, which was inconvenient for my girlfriend (it really makes a difference for them). Additionally, a shower enclosure instead of a curtain would be a nice improvement, as water did tend to spill outside the cubicle, though this wasn’t a major issue. Overall, I’d consider staying again for the excellent location, which is a standout feature!

Pros:

There were cockroaches the second we got there. The location is perfect and the staff was extremely friendly. To be honest, you get what you pay for. The bed, and the room as well, were on a slant.
