I would definitely not stay here again.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The room was uncomfortable, and the bathroom layout was completely unacceptable. Although the bathroom was small, the shower was awkwardly positioned between the sink and the toilet bowl, making it very inconvenient to use. Overall, it was a disappointing experience!

Pros:

Óptima localização e boa relação preço qualidade

Cons:

chuveiro da casa de banho. O chuveiro é apenas uma cabeça de chuveiro a emergir na parede, para uma casa de banho onde não se pode ter e nomeadamente o papel higiénico Aliás. A casa de banho é uma base de chuveiro com sanita e lavatório
