"Great hotel. Location was perfect for multiple restaurants, tourist sites as well as the metro, tram stops and train station. We had two rooms which were clean. No street noise that we noticed. The mini bar with water, coke and beer that they would restock each time they would clean (which was daily if desired) was nice as well. Coming from east coast overnight flight, we arrived at 9 am. They took our luggage and even had one room ready around noon rather than the 3 pm checkin time. Staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you are visiting Lisbon."
