Everything was great, it was retro, felt safe, good security, bed was so comfortable. So close to the train and bus tour. We had a private bathroom…. It was so cool with a working disco ball! The only thing I would change is the chair, it wasn’t real sturdy!

It is located in one of the upper floors on a super old building with no elevators. We got a private room with a private bathroom. The room has an old antique furniture and the bathroom is super old with a cave like not-smooth walls, it was scary sometimes to use the bathroom specially at night because it was dark and it feels like the walls is hiding pests.. You can use and prepare meals or eat in the shared basic old kitchen. The place has old funky old furniture which may look cool at first but not to live or sleep in. Some show old stains, like the sofa. It can be a museum but not a comfortable accommodation.

Very nice and clean property, but the area around the property is VERY NOISY specifically at night. There is no air conditioning, but you can request a fan. There is an elevator, but to get to the elevator you do need to go up some stairs. The host very friendly.

Great hotel

Lovely room, very quiet, but hotel was close to the metro, so ideal for travel further afield or coming/going to/from airport. Shared kitchen was well equiped. Vera, the owner, was very helpful and suggested places to see etc. Her English was very good. I definitely recommend the hotel. The rooms were nicely quirky, good to have something a bit different

Our stay was great! Good location near a lot of tourist spots, bars and restaurants. Loved the unique decor of the place. The only weird part was the room flyer said there was breakfast provided but there was only coffee. This was not a big deal but perhaps the flyer could be updated if there is no breakfast anymore. :)

This is a good hostel, however the check in process was complicated. There is no front desk or anyone working in the actual building that can help you check in, and they text you the access instructions via WhatsApp without informing you that you need to get that app. Therefore, make sure you get WhatsApp several days before arriving and make sure that you have the building/ room access codes before you get there! Additionally, there is a Lisbon Calling hotel in same building just one floor down, so make sure you book which one you want as it can be kind of confusing. Otherwise, it is a good hostel in a good location.

Perfect for 2 days in Central Lisbon. It’s very convenient for metro and bus. The room was very clean and had a nice view. We enjoyed the breakfast of bread, jams, cheese, muesli, yogurt, and orange juice - it was a bit confusing the first day the food was not portioned out, but the second day it was designated per room which we preferred and got more to eat. We shared a bathroom with 3 other rooms and only had to wait briefly. Overall this is a very nice guesthouse and we would stay again!
