“Cleanliness and a central location, near both a supermarket and restaurants, define this Lisbon stay; rooms include air conditioning, while the staff generally impress. Breakfast provides a varied buffet, though some find it misses omelets or fried eggs; overall, it's a solid base for exploring the city. The metro is nearby.”

The breakfast had a splendid variety! I especially liked the fresh fruit options and delicious pastries. My room had very big dimensions and the location was very close to metro and buses, useful to go to the city center.
though I had to pay extra to park elsewhere.

Acceptable Stay with a Few Disappointments

street noise monotonous breakfast
The soundproofing was not good. I could hear a lot of street noise (this. The breakfast was also disappointing. It was monotonous and not very tasty (two or three days is okay, but longer would be hard).
