The Residential is located in a very nice neighborhood. There are two restaurants besides the hotel with very friendly people, which made a plus to our stay, The front desk lady was such an amazing young lady, ready to help us to solve any problems for which we are very grateful. And the cleaning staff was very polite. There are some negative aspects: the front door is extremely heavy and we did not have instructions to enter, we had to call the front desk from the street. After 10:00pm, the front desk is closed until 10:00am. The room did not have any amenities, only the beds, one towel per person, and liquid soap for the shower.

Low price, low quality

Pros: Very good position near the centre. Two bistros next door. One of the lowest prices in town for standard room + private bathroom. Simple check-in process. Cons: very old equipment + electrics, near to quite noisy crossroad, also from the hallway you can hear everything. Official check-in 4:30 p.m. In our case one bed was so squeaky… For low price you get low quality – so simple. Do not try to contact the hotel via messages – no response. The hotel has confusing info about the check-in process; they say there is no front desk.. There is (but not open 24/7). This was actually the best experience of this stay - the young lady at the front desk was very kind, nice, and allowed us to check-in about 4 p.m. but we could keep our luggage in the room even about a hour earlier. Thanks!

Not worth the price

This place is filthy. The bed sheets had stains on them and visible signs of bed bug residue. We looked under the sheets as we read other reviews of bed bugs and the evidence was there. We left the hotel after about ten mins in the room and booked a much cleaner hotel.

The most horrible place anyone can stay. Stained and damaged linen and pillows, electrical connections and dangerous outlets. Exposed electrical wires. The curtain of the bathroom window is much smaller than the window, anyone can see you from the street. They didn't even have proper towels. The ones they gave us smelled bad. The hallways lights don't work properly (sensor enabled).The person who seem to be the manager, should not work in a hotel to be honest. She has no skills to deal with customers and she looks like mad working there. We had to look for another hotel and leave that horrendous place.

We got there at 7:30 pm. There's no proper lighting. The lights are sensor and takes awhile to turn on, very unsafe. The cot/bed broken when you seat in the middle. As we enter the room, it's smell Mold. The air from aircon smells so we did not turn it on, so we could not sleep bec. it was really hot. We left the next morning asap and go to another place. We did not expect this. Very inconvenient.

I think the property should rethink it's 16:30 virtual check in policy. Waiting around all day after arriving in Lisbon at 10:00 was very inconvenient. There was no way to leave my luggage there until check in so I had to carry it around all day while jet lagged. The room was very shabby and had dead bugs on the wall, cigarette holes in the blankets, broken showerhead, and broken wall electrical outlets. Price was OK but I would opt to pay more next time to avoid a unacceptable property like this. Expedia should reconsider their relationship.

There was no communication from the property management at all about how to check-in and receiving the room key. At the premises was no one at all except a few guests who have just arrived at the same time I have and didn't get any information regarding to how to check-in. This premises has no responsibility for up coming to guests, period. Don't you ever think about how to get a refund, they've suckling you dried. Eventually waiting 2 and half hour. I decided to find another hotel instead.

We were in room 408, which had a terrible smell when entering. It took two days to air out and spray air freshener to lessen the stench. After one day, the AC unit started making a very loud noise to the point where couldn’t here normal conversation. It made this noise even when turned off. Had to were earplugs just being there and made sleep difficult. The shower curtain isn’t waterproof and as a result the bathroom floor gets soaked. We asked for the AC to be fixed or a room transfer on day two but the mechanic wasn’t in on the weekend and stated no rooms were available. Finally got a room transfer on day five which was a much better room. We ask for a full or partial refund for the three nights we endured the terrible conditions in room 408.
