10/10 Exceptional

Well placed hotel just a short distance from the Bolhão metro station lots of shops nearby and within 10 minute walk to the fantastic Mercado market. Rooms are small but well equipped although if you're staying more than a few days there's not much storage room for clothes. Breakfast was adequate, nothing fancy but all that's needed.
