Stayed here for last night in Lisbon. Room is decent size with good AC. Bathroom has recently been refurbished. Strong water pressure but drain does not drain quickly so may flood. Floor does not have drain I believe so be careful!! Breakfast is free, very limited choices- but then again it was free so can’t complain, did the job for the morning. Main things were modern coffee machine, bread to make toast, ham, cheese, 2 kinds of cereal, butter, peach jam, from what I remember.
