The venue was clean & big. Breakfast was above average, loved it. I asked for queen room, it was cosy and practical. The staff was extremely helpful, efficient, and everything was perfect. Quick check-in and excellent service. Unbeatable location to alberto sampaio museum.

It deserves its 3 stars. Location and views, simply everything was excellent. Large bathrooms with a bathtub. Within a walking distance of Monteiro Cozinha Regional, where you can have lunch.
