Boa tarde, estou com um probleminha com o Hotel, o hotel não tinha ninguém pra receber eu e minha esposa, por sorte um funcionário do hotel guarda o carro na garagem e estava lá para fazer isso. Só assim consegui fazer o check in, se não fosse isso eu ficaria na rua. No dia seguinte e no dia fo check out não havia ninguém no hotel( recepção e sala de administração). Preciso pagar um taxa da cidade, mas não puder fazer o pagamento por não ter ninguém. Já pedi o código de iban , mas o hotel parece que está de brincadeira. Acaba não enviando. O atendimento no hotel não houve, pois não fica ninguém bo lugar.

Great little property. Super good value for money, right near Campanha Station. A bit further walk from old town and the main touristy areas but still easily done on foot. Very accomodating, including with a very later check in.

Had a problem while with the reservation (apparently due to ebookers, not the hotel) but they found a solution quickly. I had to share a room instead of having my own, so they refund me 25% of the price. Location is at 4 métro stops from the center, which is nice because the price is on average comparable to à Hostel on the center. Bathroom is private but not directly linked to the room. Would recommend.
