    I wish that breakfast was included with the rate. Many other comparable hotels offer free breakfast for the same, or even slightly cheaper rates. Having to make reservations for a continental breakfast and having to pay for it is unnecessary now a days. This is my only complain about an otherwise great hotel.

    We enjoyed our stay! The place was clean and neat and the staff was great (thank you Isabela for being so helpful and friendly). Some other reviewers have complained about the tram noise, but it really wasn't that bad. It sounded no different than staying at a hotel near an airport with the occasional plane taking off. It was a bonus that we could catch Tram 28 right in front of the hotel. Be aware, however, there is no elevator. But, the stairs were not bad.

    Not sure what the purpose of having a fridge is when the power turns off when you leave the room. Otherwise nothing I dislike!

    It was in a great location with the trams, only a 20 or so min walk to the centre. Great cafe next door too. I think I got upgraded because my place was huge! It was clean, super quiet and comfortable.

    Only thing is the walk from the train station up the hill was significant on the first day. Going down the hill on our way out was much more pleasant.

    The location was fantastic. In the middle of Alfama. The neighborhood was quiet at night but close to plenty of fantastic restaurants and cafes. Loved that the hotel was on the cable car path which was nice for getting around and fun to see everyday. The room was a great size and everything was clean and well appointed.

    A great experience

    A pity that it took some finding. No. 38 Escolas does not actually exsist- there is 35, 37, and 39. Asking in the Taverna we were directed to an unmarked door where we found reception. They, then after registration, took us back to the apartment. Not a problem but be aware. The apartment is accessed by 5 flights of straight stairs and no handrail - a problem for my wife who walks with a stick. Access was possible but slow. Just be aware if you have a handicap.

    The suite was amazing, a huge open main room, two bedrooms, one with en-suite with views to the garden. Separate loo and shower for the second bedroom. Fully equipped kitchen and beautifully clean. Room service every day. Garden with sun loungers and parasol completed the facilities. Staff at reception very efficient and a quick early check-in. Excellent resturaunt 2 minutes away and the No. 28 tram ( access for 3.10€ connecting to the main square after 7 stops), passed within 50cms of the front door (!!!) with a stop 2 minutes away. Certainly a very strange experience to squeeze up against the wall to let the tram trundle by your feet.

    It is difficult of a car to stop and bring your luggage to the place.

    I liked the location in a historic place. From the outside we did not expect it to be that modern and spacious. Nice artwork, industrial style withy a courtyard that has a nice fountain.

    Reception area a bit dour….. but this a minor issue for overall facility.

    Excellent location in Alfama. Reception area a bit dour but excellent spacious bed room. I loved the sound of the tram rattling by early morning…. Crisp linen. Decent bath towels( changed daily). Informative & helpful staff on a 24 hour reception. Safety box in room. Availability to have your luggage stored here post check out , pre Lisbon departure ,which is great. Felt a safe environment for solo, female traveller. 👍

    I did pick the accommodation due to its proximity to the tramline, I just didn't count on the room vibrating from very early morning to late at night. I got a little more than I had bargained for.

    Location was great. Great coffee place next door. Very attentive staff, super breakfast.

    The apartment lacked some facilities - like a hairdryer, sweeping brush etc. There was a coffee machine but no coffee pods provided, so I'm not sure why it was there. Floor was quite dirty. Small things though, for the great price.

    Very big apartment in a great area of Alfama. Bed was comfortable. Staff were more than helpful. There is a tram stop right outside the apartment and a market 1 minute walk. It is also 2 doors down from an excellent breakfast spot!

    There were no elevator so it was hard to move your heavy bags 2 or 3 floors, also they have coffee maker but you need to pay for the capsules, not ideal!

    A place in the nice Alfama, well located. We stay at the apartment and was very good with a nice view, I wouldn’t recommend the other rooms as they are on the other side and very noisy!
