We spent 4 days in Lisbon in late May. This hostel has an amazing location in the heart of Baixa Chiado area. 5 min from the Metro station and straight on the main pedestrian street leading to the arch to Praça do Comércio. Very close to bus and tram lines. This hostel is on the 4th floor of a quiet residential building above a specialty shoe shop. You get your own keys to the front gate, so you have the freedom to explore Lisbon and come and go as you wish. There are lots of breakfast and lunch cafes and small shops for water and necessities within 100 meters. We had to pay extra 2 Eu for towels and some city tax charges on top of the reservation price. Overall, if you plan to spend most of your time out exploring the city, this is a very nice and simple place in a great location. Would stay there again.

Cheap an very central. OK if you want to sleep only.
BUT...
â I had a double-room, because I wanted to have a bathroom for my own. It was so small, that if I wanted to sit on the toilett, I had to go in backwards! Not kidding! So it ended up with me using the other bathroom.
â The Aljubarrota is on the fourth floor, and the stairs are quite tough. Perhaps OK if you are young, I´m not...
â The lady-owner was nice to me. I read that some people complained here about lack of politeness, but I know and understand Portuguese people: You get very far in Portugal if you start with a smile. That goes for all places, not only here. If you are not friendly, they will let you know the hard way. Try the "smile-trick" next time you go there... Try it everywhere...

We had a room (end of corridor) with own bathroom (and radio in a shower :D ) and tiny balcony. Drinks and snacks we kept on public fridge.
Location was perfect. Many sights and shops were in walking distance.
House is old and renovation wouldn't do bad. You can hear traffic noise inside (but it wasn't problem for us. we slept well.) Sheets and towels were clean and good and the whole place was wort of what we paid.
Wi-Fi worked only on public area.

The hotel is situated very nicely in Lisbon close to amenities and local attractions. It is with deep regret that this is as far as my compliments can go.
Firstly, we were greeted by the receptionist who was also the cleaner. It transpired she was under qualified for either task. Very short and un-agreeable as a person and very dependant on the phrase 'i don't know'. Through the language barrier she tried to charge myself and the party I travelled with for the full cost of the stay despite overwhelming evidence from LateRooms.com and my bank statements illustrating my payment.
The rooms could be improved from squalor to average with a lick of paint, regular cleaning/house keeping and plumbing. Unfortunately, and you can call me demanding, but for the price I expect running hot water.
Upon returning to the hotel the first evening, we were greeted by faecal matter smeared across the men's bathroom, not ideal when sharing a bathroom with no alternatives. Across the 4 day stay our room was only cleaned once.
There was a dank smell upon arrival which only got worse. It culminated with paramedics and police arriving; we can only assume there has been a murder.
Will you enjoy your stay? I don't know, but probably not.

If you value hot water, and prefer faeces not smothered over toilet seats... this is not the hotel for you.
We've just returned from a 4 day trip, and I would 100% recommend that you never visit this place.
Let's start with several flights of stairs to get the the hotel, the receptionist who was only capable of replying with 'I don't know' then attempted to get us to pay again as she claimed that we had not payed for the stay (which we 100% had). After a 10 minute debate we were allowed to then enter the room.
No hot water, throughout the stay I haven't had a single experience of hot water, cold showers sadly aren't my favourite thing. The doors to the window wouldn't shut, so constant sunlight came through... great if you're trying to rest.
The first night we came back to find that the shared men's bathrooms toilet seat was smothered in faeces, great when that's the only male toilet provided.
Should also probably mention throughout our stay there was a horrific smell through the lobby, which only got worse as time went on. Initially we thought it must have been down to plumbing (or maybe another horrible toilet tragedy) but instead on our last night we were greeted by what I assume are the hotel owners and a police officer. We were offered a room in another hotel, due to 'the smell' however we were leaving in the morning, should note that this wasn't offered to the other guests in our party, can only assume that there was a little bit more going on with the smell!
Very little contact with staff, never seemed to be anyone around to answer questions or help in anyway.
On the hole.... just don't do it to yourselves.
