A well-located hotel with spacious rooms, a strong desk setup, friendly service and generally good breakfast, but with meaningful tradeoffs: variable noise, dated and uneven room maintenance, unreliable Wi-Fi, and absent leisure facilities.

Will you actually sleep here?
135 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
Sleep is a real gamble here, mainly because aircraft and occasional neighbour noise can be disruptive.
Check before bookingAircraft noise is a documented sleep risk, including complaints about night and early-morning flights.
Sleep is a real gamble here, mainly because aircraft and occasional neighbour noise can be disruptive. Closed soundproof windows help, and some guests find the beds comfortable, but others report hard beds, poor pillows and early-morning flight noise. Light sleepers should choose carefully.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 7/10 on average.
Those who complained rated the whole stay 6.33/10 on average.
Quite good noise isolation (jets landing line is just above the hotel)
The beds are very comfortable!
terrible jet noise from 4 AM to 12 PM every 3 minutes
limited items 4- The prize was too high for the expectation 5- Outside construction noise
Evidence confidence: moderate. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
What are the rooms actually like?
123 reviews about this · 16 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
The rooms are reasonably spacious and the beds often get praise, but the overall experience is uneven. Bathrooms can have problems such as showers that switch between hot and cold, while some guests find the beds uncomfortable. It suits travellers who value space more than polished modern finishes.

The beds are very comfortable!

Check before bookingSupplied reviews describe outdated furnishings, worn carpets, stains, dust, odors, plumbing faults and isolated pest concerns.
The hotel is generally clean, but it feels dated and its upkeep is inconsistent. Guests praise cleanliness while also mentioning worn carpets, stains, smells and occasional plumbing or pest concerns. It is a better fit if cleanliness matters more to you than contemporary decor.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 7.58/10 on average.
Guests reporting this gave the whole stay 8.33/10 on average.
Those who complained rated the whole stay 5.33/10 on average.
Very clean
an odd purple stain on the carpet
The rooms are tired and in need of renovation
5.5/10. Cleanliness is a relative strength, but overall condition is pulled down by documented datedness, wear, isolated cleaning defects, odors, plumbing problems and pest complaints. The evidence supports a usable but unevenly maintained property, not a fully renovated one.
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?
217 reviews about this · 7 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
Staff are one of the hotel's stronger points and usually come across as friendly, helpful and responsive. Check-in and problem-solving are less consistent, with some complaints about early check-in charges and service pressure at breakfast. Expect good personal service, but not flawless handling of every issue.






Very helpful and amiable staff on reception who gave good information when needed
and the service from check-in to check-out was fantastic
Breakfast staff gets stressed around 10.00 to get ready for brunch and sits people literally elbow to elbow
Was asked 50 euro for early check in
Is breakfast worth booking?
235 reviews about this · 20 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
Breakfast is generally worth considering, with plenty of choice, regular restocking and positive comments about the restaurant.
Check before bookingCoffee quality and machine availability receive documented criticism.
Breakfast is generally worth considering, with plenty of choice, regular restocking and positive comments about the restaurant. Coffee quality, price and repetition hold it back, and seating can feel cramped near the end of service. Book it if variety matters more than excellent coffee.




Breakfast is excellent with many choices
great in house restaurant
Breakfast is rather limited
No tea or coffee facilities in the room
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?
3 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
Do not book this hotel expecting a pool: guest reports indicate that there is no pool.
Check before bookingA recent supplied review states: "No pool, no gym."
Do not book this hotel expecting a pool: guest reports indicate that there is no pool. The available photographs do not show one, despite the stronger external score. Pool access should be a deal-breaker here.
Score 2/10: the balance of supplied direct evidence indicates that a guest pool is absent or unavailable, although one review mentions a pool positively. The evidence is therefore conflicting, and no supplied image establishes a pool.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
How well placed is it, really?
177 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026. Limited evidence: treat this assessment as provisional. Confidence is low because the available sources are limited or inconsistent.
The location is genuinely convenient, especially for public transport, with a metro station nearby and easy access to trains, buses and taxis. It is less appealing for walking into the city centre and sits under an aircraft flight path. Choose it for transport links rather than a quiet, central neighbourhood.
Location right next to the metro and a short walk to one of Lisbon's main train and intercity bus stations
excellent location next to a metro station for easy access to Lisbon
Location is a little far for walking to the city centre and is on the flight path of air planes
so kind of contradictory) Location was a bit further out than we thought so had to get a lot of taxis to and from the centre
Can you work or take calls from the room?
14 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
Wi-Fi is unreliable enough to make working or video calls risky.
Check before bookingSupplied reviews report inconsistent, weak, extremely bad, or non-working Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi is unreliable enough to make working or video calls risky. Some guests find it usable, but others report weak, inconsistent or non-working service, including difficulty working online. It is fine for light browsing but not dependable for business travel.
Very weak WiFi signal in room 807
Overall connectivity is weak: internet is advertised and available in the facility list, but supplied guest evidence documents repeated reliability problems and no measured speeds. The score reflects the guest experience rather than the mere presence of Wi-Fi.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is the desk usable for a working day?
17 reviews about this · 10 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.
The room appears to offer a proper, spacious desk, and the few guests who mention it praise the workstation.
Check before bookingDesk dimensions, chair ergonomics, outlet placement, monitor suitability, and glare risk are not established.
The room appears to offer a proper, spacious desk, and the few guests who mention it praise the workstation. However, chair comfort, outlets and other practical details are unconfirmed, while weak Wi-Fi could undermine a working day. The desk is promising, but remote workers should have a backup connection.






Room was a spacious with a nice desk and ample room for working
Very weak WiFi signal in room 807
8/10: The image establishes a dedicated desk, and two supplied guests explicitly describe it as wide or suitable for working. The score is limited because dimensions, outlets, chair comfort, and longer-term usability are not established; the corpus count is only a lower bound.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is there anywhere to train?
2 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
There is no gym, so this hotel is not suitable if on-site training is important.
Check before bookingThe gym is explicitly reported as absent.
There is no gym, so this hotel is not suitable if on-site training is important. No equipment or workout space is available based on the supplied evidence. Plan to exercise elsewhere.
Score 1/10: two supplied reviews explicitly report that no gym exists, and corpus statistics classify both detected gym mentions as complaints. No evidence supports any usable gym facility.
Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.
Is it worth the money?
26 reviews about this · analyzed Oct 2026.
The hotel offers fair-to-good value when its transport links, breakfast and service match your priorities. Some guests consider breakfast excellent value, while others find the stay or breakfast expensive for the condition and facilities. It is best value for a convenient base, not for resort-style amenities.
Breakfast is excellent value for money
we think it's a bit expensive

USD 103–153per night on sampled dates · historical observations
Good value when: Likely better when the nightly rate is near the observed December or January levels and when guests use the metro location, breakfast selectively, and do not require in-room tea or coffee facilities.
Poor value when: Less compelling at the observed October rate or when paying separately for breakfast, parking, or the €5 kettle package; several supplied reviews felt the four-star offering or breakfast price did not justify the cost.
