Underwhelming stay, wouldn't repeat

small roomlate music
The room I booked, a supposedly Medium Mama Double Room Queen Bed, felt more like a closet. I struggled to open my suitcase fully. The bathroom lacked basic toiletries. I had to call down for shampoo. The rooftop bar seemed more important than the actual guests, with loud music until late that I wasn't able to sleep properly.

Great Hotel with a Vibe

amazing viewgood drinkexcellent ladynoisy room
The rooftop bar had amazing views and good drinks. The front desk lady, Margarida, was excellent and very helpful. I found the hotel was close to everything.
The room was noisy at night due to people partying, and there was a constant buzzing from a pump outside my window, it was hard to sleep.

I stayed in a spacious room located on the seventh floor. This room offered a view of the 25 of April bridge. There was clear shower door, without privacy during showers.

The hotel had a rooftop bar with a limited menu during the day. Drinks must be bought to use the rooftop area. There is no dedicated hotel guest seating to relax without a purchase.
