Better than expectations. Brigh, clean, airy. Friendly and helpful staff. Decor and architecture exceptional. Lovely roof terrace. Location right in the centre within a short walk from the train station, the island ferries, the central market, good restaurants and bars and a small supermarket.

Liked: Cleanliness
I like the area where is located. It’s amazing.
I didn’t like that it had to many stairs
Very lovely place, clean, pleasant, central and the terrace is a big, big win! Not a luxury experience but nice and cosy, hands down my best experience at this price point. Didn't get a chance to meet to the hosts but they were readily available by message. Would definitely recommend for solo travellrs/duos hoping to save but not compromise on comfort.
I booked a bedroom with common bathroom for two people by Expedia, and it was really amazing. When we arrived the owner give us the possibility to change the bedroom to another with private bathroom without paying extra. The staff was really kind and come every day to clean the room. There's a kitchen in common where we can drink a tea or coffee for free. There is also a roof terrace where you can enjoy in relax with a sea view, drink, eat and smoke a cigarette. We raccomend this accommodation, is not expensive and it's really clean with a super staff. Thank you for the experience.
I will say that arriving to the location was challenging with a car. The receptionist was too fast with directions to get our rental safely parked (nearby grocery store overnight). I realize she's been at the job awhile so it may seem quite simple for her. We did appreciate the apartment but the entry door, 3 flights up, is literally at the commune kitchen. Busy area with guests! The view on top terrace was the best asset.
The location was brilliant, everything in walkable distance.
The staff are friendly and accommodating. The rooftop area is lovely, I would definitely recommend and would stay here again.
Great location, very reasonable price. It was so close to all the harbour front boat trips and really great restaurants. The room was neat and clean. Responsive hosts. I would stay here again but try to get a higher room as the restaurant noise was a lot, not that Pension Bicaur can help that. The roof terrace was ideal for dinner. I didn't use the cooking facilities.
Nice place with lovely rooftop terrace and very kind and helpful owner. Nice shared kitchen too.
There is no parking but you can park nearby. The only issue for me was noise from the street next to the room. Maybe just because it was a Friday but there was live music until midnight so me and my young child could not aleep until it had finished.
Alt hvad man skulle bruge i køkkenet var der. Det kneb dog med plads i det fælles køleskab. Herlig tagterrasse med hyggelige små kroge hvor man kunne sidde alene og nyde udsigten og vejret. Super sød vært og fortrinlig rengøring.
Lidt kedelig udsigt til gade hvor man heldigvis bare kunne lukke vinduet.
Gostei bastante da hospedagem, o quarto é bem limpo, confortável, tem cozinha equipada e super organizada com todos os utensílios o que me deixou positivamente surpresa. Tem um terraço com mesas e churrasqueira. Localização excelente! Tem vários restaurantes na porta.
O único aspecto negativo é que fiquei no quarto sem ar condicionado e lá faz MUITO calor. Fora isso super recomendo. Atendentes e funcionários excelentes
La chambre était tres propre et l'accueil efficace. L'hôtel est bien situé pour circuler à pied en front de mer et commerces locaux et le rooftop est superbe.
Gros bémol sur la nuit, nous n'avons pas pu dormir avant 3h du matin à cause des nuisances des bars situés au pied de l'hôtel : des gens criaient, chantaient très fort, étaient ivres, même fenêtre fermée c'était insupportable... à cela s'ajoute la chaleur, pas de climatisation.
Un peu déçue aussi du conseil pour le restaurant, je m'attendais à une cuisine typique Portugaise et on était plutôt sur des tendances asiatiques actuelles (poké bowl, etc.. )
Très bien ! Hôtel propre et agréable. La chambre était conforme à sa description : simple mais avec tout ce qu'il fallait. Les deux personnes qui m'ont accueillie étaient charmante.
Los anfitriones son súper atentos y simpáticos, las habitaciones están decoradas con mucho gusto y en general, nuestra estancia ha sido muy confortable y agradable. Recomendado 100% quedarse allí.

Disliked: Room comfort
Séjour en famille
Nous avons passé un séjour vraiment mitigé. Le personnel est très agréable et avenant.
Cependant l’hôtel est vraiment en plein centre de la ville, ce qui fait qu'il y a bcp de passage et donc de bruit.
De plus en juillet il fait très chaud malgré le ventilateur au plafond. Impossible de dormir entre le bruit et la chaleur.
Certe le prix de l'hotel est très attractif mais la nuit ne permet pas vraiment de se reposer...
