    Location

    Liked: Location, with car parking and restaurants nearby, close to Praça do Comércio and public transport (tram).

    Disliked: The breakfast is poor, there was no coffee machine, the selection of food was very limited, and items ran out very quickly. The standard room offered a view of all the air conditioning units, and we were advised not to open the window. It is not normal that I am prevented from opening a window and getting some fresh air. It was very noisy. The refrigerator ran very loudly, making it impossible to sleep. The room was a little small. The water system in the room made a lot of noise at night.

    Good location, get breakfast elsewhere

    Liked: Central location.

    Disliked: There were drug dealers hanging out just outside the hotel. It made walking back at night feel unsafe. Breakfast was very limited. There is no kettle in the room. On the morning we had to leave early for a day trip to Sintra, we asked if we could have a breakfast pack (as we paid for breakfast already) with some fruit and pastries. They refused. Could only do sandwiches, but no fruit or pastries or even a yogurt (all of which was part of the breakfast buffet) The sandwiches left much to be desired: it was obviously made the day before and consisted of 3 slices of bread each with a piece of ham/tomato and cheese. No butter. No seasoning. It felt like they were offended we asked for something we already paid for.
