We stayed in a one bedroom suite with capacity for four (one full bed plus two bunk beds in the living room). Overall, I would enthusiastically recommend the property for the following reasons:
-The suite was spacious for our family of four to relax during down time. The living area was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked.
-The location was both central in the Bairro Alto neighborhood yet also on a quiet street seemingly a world away from the lively bar scene just a couple of blocks away. There is plenty of dining, bars, Fado, mini-grocery, etc. nearby.
-The staff was friendly and accommodating. We had no problems checking in during normal hours (I believe 8 am to midnight. Older reviews expressing difficulty checking in might be from covid-era restrictions). They even let us store luggage after check out time until we were able to check into our accommodation at the airport.
-The property is reasonable to reach via public transportation. With luggage, the walk from the Metro station is strenuous but doable.
-The price was very reasonable for family accommodations in a central, walkable area.
Some things to be aware of:
-We appreciated the patio outside our room, but rarely spend time outside because it is somewhat of an aerial shared space with the rooms on floors above ours.
-Now that I am more familiar with Lisbon, I might have tried looking in a different neighborhood that was more central to Baixa- the nightlife was not a priority for us.
Thank you!
