8.9Verified guest“Staying above the train station made getting around incredibly easy. The twin room was spacious and came with towels. Shared bathrooms stayed clean. Breakfast was excellent, and Thais and Kim were welcoming. The complimentary access to the pool and rooftop bar at Sunset Destination was a nice bonus. I'd return next time I'm in Lisbon.”

8.9Verified guest“The staff were friendly and approachable. My single room had a desk, safe, and ceiling fan. Being inside Rossio station meant easy access to trains and metro, and a short walk to Bairro Alto. The breakfast with pancakes and spreads was tasty, and dinner one night was generous with complimentary wine. Great value for money; I'd stay again.”
