Thoroughly enjoyed the place, had a really comfortable stay for a 2nd visit. The location was marvellous, for example, St Johns Market was not too far away from the hotel. It was a nice area, a convenient base for me.

The location was nice and pleasant - an easy walk to everywhere we wanted to go. Rossopomodoro set just 500 metres away from the hotel, had an Indian cuisine. The room was perfectly clean and functional with a very comfy bed and a shower, a hair dryer and a bidet in the bathroom.

The property was pretty standard and exceptionally comfortable with ACCOMMODATING staff especially the receptionists. Stayed in a rather spacious room that was always kept clean. The location was particularly good and pleasant, so close to a trolley and a bright restaurant, overlooking the sea with gluten free options and great, strong coffee. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, didn't want to leave.

All in all - had a relaxing 1 night stay. The atmosphere created was quiet. We were in the double room with a safe, a mini bar, an iron and ironing board. The restaurant was good and its amazing dishes are to die for.

An easy walk to attractions, including praia formosa. Sao Martinho district was worth staying in. Rossopomodoro, located within 5 minutes' walk, is a good dining option...
