“Great hotel with polite staff and a particularly good location in a convenient neighborhood. Right next to the bus station and the avenue. Had nice treats at Panificadora Jose Menino, just minutes away.”

“My stay had a few hiccups, but overall positive. The standout was the excellent, friendly staff who helped with any issues. The internet was slow and occasionally not working, but they provided an alternate access. The location was convenient, though the building felt shabby and there was some street noise. The staff's attentiveness and prime location outweighed these concerns.”
