Perfecto hotel en el centro
Pros:

La ubicación, a 5 minutos andando de la plaza del comercio y muy cerca de la Sé de Lisboa. El trato de los trabajadores, la habitación, aunque algo pequeña, era comoda y nos pusieron una supletoria para el niño sin ningún coste. Estaba limpio. El desayuno era correcto, no muy variado pero con lo necesario para tener un poco de todo.

Cons:

Por decir algo, la cortina no era totalmente opaca y dejaba entrar un poco la luz.

Pros:

Hommikusöök oli tagasihoidlik, aga kõhu sai täis. Toas vaadet ei olnud. Tuba muidu ilus ja puhas, sprade toast oli vaade tänavale. Asukoht on põhimõtteliselt vanalinnas väga hea koht.
