Atendimento dos funcionários.

Pessoas que dormiram na minha cama, na minha ausência.

The breakfast. The kitchen, the location staff was great.

They don’t have air conditioning not even a Fan it was pretty hot in the room.

We walked out the door of the airport and took a bus almost to the door of the hostel. The metro, which goes to the airport was even closer. The hostel needs a little refurbishment-it’s an immaculate but a bit dingy- cracked tiles and ceiling but that’s typical of the whole of Lisbon and part of the charm. From our comfortable beds we could see the nearby Sheraton and be confident that the bed was as comfortable, the sheets , towels and white bed linen just as good. Socks beside bed. Good water pressure and loads of hot water. Kitchen dingy but clean and a range of frozen meals available to but - vegetarian and meat lasagna to heat for example. A well stocked late night convenience store almost next door and a Pizza Hut around the corner. Very safe neighbourhood , very quiet at the back. Breakfast substantial

Dingy-probably some works will be done over the winter Not much of a vibe as it was second week of January Communal areas lacking in charm, especially the terrace and bar

The staff I met were nice. Breakfast was good.

I arrived at 11pm to find another two people waiting for someone to check them in. No one showed up or answered the phone. The other staff member who arrived at 11:56pm checked us in. It was late and we were tired and no one to let us in, very disrespectful. The room was small, no plugs near the bed. The light only works with one of the guests card, meaning you can't leave your phone charging if no one is in the room. The mattress was uncomfortable.
