Excellent hotel near Avenida da Liberdade

helpful staffeasy accessbasic amenitiespoor ventilation
The location proved convenient with easy access to the main avenue. The staff was always helpful. Miguel stood out. He provided excellent assistance with a smile. I valued the basic amenities .
I did notice a minor issue, the room ventilation wasn't ideal. There was a slight odor that lingered, almost like stale smoke. This did affect the overall freshness of the room.

Avenida da Liberdade stay

central locationsound isolationclean room
I found its location central. The hotel is on Avenida da Liberdade. This puts it close to restaurants. Sound isolation is nice. I did not hear anyone around when sleeping. Cleaning was good each day. They do clean your room each day. Breakfast had lots of choice, was good quality. I found many Portuguese offerings. The room was very clean. The staff are friendly.
The room was warm. I was unable to turn the air con on.

middling stay, some issues with HOUSEKEEPING

decent varietyunacceptable delaycleaning rags
the breakfast had A decent variety, adequate to start the day.
The housekeeping NEVER fully cleaned the room, which i found GROSS. they left cleaning rags behind, a blatant oversight. plus, they did not replenish the kleenex box. I requested more at the front desk, but it took an UNACCEPTABLE three hours to receive tissues.
