A very friendly and special place! Its not a five star hotel, but it really has its charm! Friendly staff and a great breakfast!
Its all about the vibe and not about the appearance in this place!

An ok place to stay.
We chose the hotel for a-locality and b-cost.
It is located in a great location for the metro and walking. The pictures on hotels.com are nothing like reality though.
Breakfast was good.
Our room had a bed and a bedside table on one side and a wall on the other. There's nowhere to hang clothes or shelves to out anything on. There's one chair only. There is a fridge though.
We were there for 4 nights and although we asked for a change of towels after the 2nd night, and the bin emptied, neither was done in the 4 days we stayed. Wifi in the reception area only; our room had a window onto the passageway and there was a light on most of the night which was annoying.
Most of the staff spoke English which was a bonus. You have to ask for a hairdryer if you need one.
It would have been nice to have some insight of how to get to everywhere when asked or even before asking. Perhaps an informational leaflet would be helpful.
There's a supermarket a little to the left on exiting the hotel which has a restaurant. Excellent pizzas. You order your food, choose the wine or beer from the supermarket and sit at the table. Fabulous - but we found it; no one told us which was a pity.
Would we stay again? Yes but. It that room.

Muito sujo
Eles são extremamente educados, conforto da cama e travesseiro muito bom. MASSS, o quarto estava muito sujo, com lixo de outra pessoa no banheiro com direito a casca de banana e papel higiênico no chão onde ainda pedimos para retirar com educação e não fomos atendidos. O café estava gelado, além de uma fruta mofada.

Péssimo atendimento, dependências imundas
Instalações precárias, sujeira predominando em todos os ambientes, começando pela recepção. Atendimento pessimo, cheiro desagradável nas dependências, piscina suja, quarto com manchas nas paredes, colchão no chão cheio de pó, não recomendo pra ninguém.
