Booked as part of a Portugal Getaways seven-night package from Toronto, and it's been a very good experience. Can't comment directly on the price, the package included airfare too. Location is pretty close to a metro (subway) station, and in walking distance to the train Sao Bento station (around 1.5 Km). Easy to walk to the main tourist attractions, even to Douro River (OK, coming back means some steep hills, could be difficult if any mobility issues.) Room is "European" (read small), imagine a queen bed surrounded by a less than one meter large area each side. The furniture also includes two nightstands, one chair, one table and a small fridge. The wardrobe closet is rather large by comparison. It could be a challenge for two adults, especially if luggage is for longer trips. Bathroom is pretty good too, shower only but clean and well maintained. The safe is old-style, with a key (that's easy to carry). Wall-mounted TV, with over 120 channels - many in English. Breakfast is EUR 11, small variety but fair - it starts at 7:30 AM so one could have it and still catch a train at Sao Bento before 8:30 AM to visit other cities (a brisk walk included). Very good service from all staff; I was impressed how proud were the breakfast ladies of cooking themselves the desserts in-house. Overall I would recommend it, can't compare with any other hotel in the city centre area.
