I booked this property for my trip to Lisbon. The only thing that is good about this property is the location. Everything else is really bad. This property is centrally located but it is a very old property. Right from the entrance of the property all the rooms smell of Pigeon poop. I complained to reception about it and they seem to be aware of this and offered me a room on a different floor but you just can't get rid of the pigeon poop smell. It was impossible to sleep without opening the windows that were facing the roadside with lots of noise at night. In pictures on Expedia, you'll see pictures of kitchen and laundry machines which gives the impression that they are accessible to the tenants, but in fact, they are not. It is just a misleading advertisement. Also, when they say private bathroom on the listing, not all bathrooms are inside the room. Some rooms have "private" bathrooms outside the room (which will be used only by you). Another misleading advertisement. Stay away from this property.

Meh.
It's a bed with a bathroom for too much money in central Lisbon. If you just need that for a night or two, this place will suffice.

Do Not Stay Here
Do not stay here. Any other hotel in the city center is priced similarly and is far better. When we saw the awful state of the room we tried to get a refund. The refund policy was to pay one night as a penalty. The hotel refused our request. hotels.com was no help at all. We booked another hotel and stayed there. We didn't check out of Baixa while we were still paying for it. The hotel rented the room to other travelers while we were out. They said they'd refund our money but did not. The general manager (owner?) is the rudest woman in Portugal. It's really not worth the hassle.

Stay Anywhere Else
The room for three people was wall to wall bed. It was not modern or spacious, as advertised. It did not have AC, as advertised. There wasn’t room for more than one person to stand. We tried speaking to Hotels.com and got the run around. They directed us to the hotel. The “front desk” directed us to the manager (the rudest woman in Portugal) who directed us to Hotels.com. This is not a hotel the management is proud of. They get their business by fooling people. We found another place to stay. We did not check out. The hotel sold our room to another person. When we returned to the room we were still paying for, two strange sets of luggage and toiletries were in the room. We are charging back through AMEX because the hotel has no qualms about charging two parties for the same room.

Very disappointing
Very poor value for money, very shabby entrance and stairs, no lift ,decoration very drab, A very worrying smell of gas during our 2 day stay. No plug on bathroom wash basin, no glasses in room for water, no air conditioning so very hot and stuffy, very little sign of any staff. We paid 205€ for 2 nights and we're told on your site this was a reduced price, think again. We were told there was only one room left yet the place seemed empty. We were totally misled by your website. Many u

Left to our own devices
I knew this wouldn't be perfect but I thought the guest house would at least match the information in their listing. I think my biggest annoyance is with the 24h reception which in fact was open for maybe an hour a day, if at all. I was also expecting a hairdryer in the room but it wasn't there and I couldn't get it from reception when it was convenient for me because there wasn't anyone at reception. Just a mention in case this is important to you: - twin room had two single beds one next to the other which pretty much looked like one and there was no space to separate them - peeling wallpaper - leaking shower, shower with mould and rust. At lest pressure and water temp was good. The one thing that the guest house is definitely good for is location - convenient for public transport, nightlife, restaurants etc. Overall an ok stay, we knew it would be cheap and cheerful. Most things you can live with for a short stay but lack of reception is definitely an inconvenience.

Closest in proximity to the city center.
While the Guest House was close to nearly everything in the city center it lacked the basic space necessary for any couple to manipulate around a room. The bedroom was the size of the double bed. There were no facilities beyond that other than bathroom space (no tub) and limited area to negotiate around a sink. No AC no lift (2nd floor walk up) and narrow corridors. While the room was clean, and the owner cordial and hospitable the facilities lacked substance. Even the flat screen TV was the size of my computer monitor, very basic room with only plastic cups. Should be considered a Hostel and not a Guest House that non-backpackers would be used too.

Love it!
Very friendly and helpful staff. The location is perfect coz it's just a few minutes walk to Rossio station and tram stations. The room is in good condition but a little bit dark and not very spacious, yet it is definitely enough for two people! The bathroom is clean and tidy, which we appreciate the most. The wifi is not super stable but acceptable. The door of the guesthouse is not that obvious but you'll definitely be able to find it with Google map:)

Construction zone in Baixa
We were very disappointed with this accommodation. There was construction (of big buildings) on both sides and on the ground floor of this premises, with a big dump bin outside the locked front door full of broken wall/floor sheeting of who knows what possible material? When we arrived and a builder let us in there was a power cord extension running up the stairwell. We were placed on fourth floor in attic-type room with no lift when I had an email confirming lower floor. We had no hot water during our stay, despite letting the shower run for five minutes (the shower head was just like a tap, so it wouldn't have been very pleasant anyway) and the bathroom floor was very slippery after this attempt with no bathmat or hand towels. There were exposed power wires on the wall of the bathroom. Wifi on fourth floor was almost non-existent, very difficult to get on to, and dropped out constantly - useless. There was a kitchenette but the plates and mugs had just been rinsed and left on the dirty sink. The place advertised 24-hour reception, but the front door and the door to reception on the first floor were usually closed and they had phone numbers you could phone in an emergency. This is not my idea of 24-hour reception and not what was advertised. This was a most unpleasant stay and I would never recommend it to anyone.
