Will you actually sleep here?
114 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
Sleep is usually comfortable, but noise and weak blackout make it inconsistent.
Check before bookingSome reviews report street, fire-station, aircraft, ventilation, hallway, and door noise.
Sleep is usually comfortable, but noise and weak blackout make it inconsistent. Guests praise the beds and some rooms are quiet, while street, hallway, fire-station and aircraft noise can affect others. Light sleepers should request a quiet, non-street-facing room.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 8.12/10 on average.
quiet
Very comfortable bed
it is very noisy at night if your room is looking the main street
Bed not comfortable enough for longer stays
Sleep conditions are mixed but more often praised in the supplied relevant reviews. Bed comfort and quiet-room experiences are documented, while external noise and imperfect blackout create meaningful room-selection risk. The corpus records 66 noise mentions, including 25 complaints and 23 complaints in the last two years; retrieved reviews are relevance-selected and cannot estimate prevalence.
Evidence confidence: moderate. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
What are the rooms actually like?
146 reviews about this · 23 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
The rooms are generally spacious and comfortable, with good beds and occasional pleasant views. Bathrooms draw the main criticism, including a notably slippery floor, while bed comfort can vary for longer stays. They suit guests who value space and location more than polished bathroom details.






really big rooms and perfect location where metro and buses take you to the city centre
Very comfortable bed
Bed not comfortable enough for longer stays
note to the management: the bathroom floor was *extremely* slippery because it has a smooth finish (specially when wet) and there was no accessible towel rail
Is it clean and well kept?
215 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
The hotel is generally clean, modern and well maintained, earning strong marks overall.
Check before bookingSupplied reviews include specific cleaning failures, including an unclean floor, dirty bathroom surfaces, and rooms not cleaned.
The hotel is generally clean, modern and well maintained, earning strong marks overall. Guests praise room condition, though some report dirty floors, bathroom problems, unusual smells or missed cleaning. It is a good fit for most travelers, but maintenance standards are not perfectly consistent.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 7.71/10 on average.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 8.17/10 on average.
The staff were incredibly friendly and the room was in great condition and clean
Another issue was the floor in the room - it was really dirty
Broken shower and window not opening correclty
8.0/10: overall evidence supports a generally clean, modern property with strong cleanliness feedback, but not uniformly reliable execution. Documented dirty surfaces, missed housekeeping, fixture failures, and recent plumbing complaints prevent a higher score.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Do the staff fix things when they go wrong?
212 reviews about this · 8 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
Guests rate this 9.2 (city average 8.0); our evidence assessment is 7.6. These use different methods and samples; the detail below explains our assessment.
Staff are usually friendly and helpful, but problem-solving is less reliable than the welcome. Guests praise service and easy check-in, while others mention a rude manager or rooms not being ready on arrival. Expect a pleasant stay overall, but raise problems promptly rather than assuming they will be fixed quickly.






The staff were incredibly friendly and the room was in great condition and clean
Easy check-in and nice staff!
the first manager was quite rude
The rooms were fully paid few days before arrival...Next we arrived in the hotel around 11:30 am rooms were not ready so we couldn't check in
Is breakfast worth booking?
228 reviews about this · 13 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
Breakfast is one of the hotel’s stronger features, with varied, fresh food and generally good coffee.
Check before bookingSome supplied reviews report repetitive breakfast, weak coffee, limited replenishment, or few tables.
Breakfast is one of the hotel’s stronger features, with varied, fresh food and generally good coffee. Some guests report repetitive choices, weak coffee, limited replenishment or too few tables at busy times. It is worth considering if you enjoy a substantial buffet, though the experience can depend on timing.






breakfast was really nice fresh with high quality ingrediencies
Breakfast was very good many choices and great coffee!
Few tables for breakfast
The coffee was not very good
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is the pool as good as the photos?
1 review about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
There is no swimming pool, so the pool photos or expectation do not match this hotel.
Check before bookingNo swimming pool is listed among the supplied facilities.
There is no swimming pool, so the pool photos or expectation do not match this hotel. Guests looking for pool time should choose another property.
Scored 0 because the supplied facility data does not list a pool and a recent supplied review explicitly says a pool area is missing. The supplied images do not establish a pool; they show skyline views.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
How well placed is it, really?
146 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
The location is excellent for public transport and everyday conveniences, with cafés, shops and services nearby.
Check before bookingSome reviews describe the hotel as far from central attractions.
The location is excellent for public transport and everyday conveniences, with cafés, shops and services nearby. It is less convenient for some central sights, and street-facing rooms may hear sirens or traffic. Choose it for easy metro access rather than a quiet, attractions-on-the-doorstep setting.
near metro and walking distance from quite a few good places to eat
This business hotel is located in a very nice part of Lisbon with great access to public transport
Whilst the nearest Metro station was only a 4-5 minute walk it was not a useful station for a visitor
You are opposite a fire station so do expect sirens occasionally
Overall location is clearly good for transport and everyday convenience, supported by close metro access, nearby groceries and numerous food options. The score is held below the top range because central tourist access is mixed and multiple reviews document noise or distance concerns.
Evidence confidence: moderate. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Can you work or take calls from the room?
11 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
Wi-Fi is too unreliable for anyone who must work or take calls without interruption.
Check before bookingSupplied reviews document weak room signal, a two-day outage, and an unsecured network.
Wi-Fi is too unreliable for anyone who must work or take calls without interruption. Some guests report good internet, but others describe weak room signal and a prolonged outage, with no speed information available. Casual users should be fine if it works during their stay; remote workers should have a backup.
The internet connection was also very good
We had few issues during our 7 day stay: - 2 days without wifi (not accaptable in 21st century and this is critic to management and owners
Overall connectivity is ordinary rather than clearly dependable: internet is offered and some guests report good service, but supplied evidence also documents weak room-level signal, an outage, and an unsecured network. No speed tests or direct video-call evidence were supplied.
Evidence confidence: moderate. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is the desk usable for a working day?
14 reviews about this · 1 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
The room offers a usable laptop desk, but it is better for occasional work than a full working day.
Check before bookingThe chair is a basic chair rather than a documented ergonomic model.
The room offers a usable laptop desk, but it is better for occasional work than a full working day. Natural light can be good, while the basic chair, uncertain power setup and inconsistent Wi-Fi limit it. Choose it for light admin, not demanding remote work.

The internet connection was also very good
We had few issues during our 7 day stay: - 2 days without wifi (not accaptable in 21st century and this is critic to management and owners
Overall workspace quality is moderately good: a dedicated desk and chair are documented, and one supplied review reports good light. The chair is not documented as ergonomic, desk dimensions and power access are unknown, and corpus statistics identify three desk/working-space complaints, including a complaint within the last 180 days. Retrieved reviews are examples, not prevalence estimates.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is there anywhere to train?
1 review about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
There is no gym, so this hotel will not suit guests who want on-site training.
Check before bookingNo gym is listed in the supplied facilities.
There is no gym, so this hotel will not suit guests who want on-site training. Plan to exercise elsewhere or choose a property with fitness facilities.
A small gym had been nice
Score 0: the supplied facilities do not list a gym, and a guest explicitly wished that a small gym had been available. No gym equipment, room, condition, lighting, or capacity is documented.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is it worth the money?
24 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
The hotel generally offers good value for its clean rooms, location and breakfast. Some guests find it expensive, so the deal depends on the rate and how much you value transport access and space. It is strongest for travelers who want a practical, well-connected base rather than extensive leisure facilities.
Very clean and value for money
Too expensive

USD 79–143per night on sampled dates · historical observations
Good value when: Likely strongest on the lower observed dates, at about 78.90–83.065 USD nightly before the listed taxes, and when breakfast, parking, or location convenience are useful.
Poor value when: Less compelling on the observed 143.40 USD nightly date, or when paying separately for expensive breakfast or parking. A recent corpus statistic records a value complaint, but its specific cause is not supplied.
