central location and friendly staff
great locationfriendly staffcontinental breakfastsmall roommissing wardrobelimited seating
the location was really great. i found myself right in the heart of bica opposite the elevador. the staff were friendly and cute, and nothing was too much. breakfast was a tasty continental breakfast including mini pasties.
the room was very small. there were no drawers or a wardrobe, just six hangers on a bracket on the wall. i noticed there was no seating and i could not even sit on the bed as the bed is roughly 35cm high. these rooms are only suitable for an overnight stay.

Acceptable Stay with Minor Issues
great locationhelpful stafflandmark viewcity view
The location was really great. Many good restaurants and cafes surrounded the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful.
The superior double room I booked did not have a landmark view or city view. I could see a sliver of the river if I stood on tiptoe (it was not ideal).
