“The location is excellent and the décor has real style. Check-in went smoothly and reception were helpful, pointing me to a great restaurant just across the street. Exploring the city centre from here was effortless.”

“I needed a bed for one night before an early flight. The bed was comfy, the room clean, and the air conditioning worked — though it was a little noisy. The spot is brilliant, a one-minute walk to São Bento station, and the reception staff were very friendly. The bathroom had a good shower, toilet, sink, and hairdryer. Convenient and cheap.”
