A Cozy Spot with Room for Improvement

My stay left me mixed emotions. Although the layout felt cramped and connectivity was lacking, I really enjoyed the nearby local diners offering delicious breakfast options. Remember to check your wifi connectivity beforehand. The fresh decor gives it charm despite a few hitches.

furniture quality

painted walls

comfortable beds

dirty bathrooms

low supplies

Fresh paint and decent furniture add a bit of flair to the rooms. The beds, while encased in plastic, still provide a decent spot for a quick nap after a long day of traveling.

The overall upkeep leaves something to be desired. the bathrooms, in particular, could use a thorough cleaning. Showers appeared dirty, and the amount of towels and toilet paper was noticeably low—definitely not ideal for a longer stay. The mattress felt hollow and the blanket had a tear, which might be bothersome for some. Wi-Fi and phone service were inconsistent, making it tough to stay connected. This place might work for a quick overnight pit stop, but not for an extended adventure.

I had a decent experience with clean sheets and a comfy bed during my stay. The pool was a nice way to relax after a long day, and I really appreciated the cozy lounge area as well. The breakfast selection could use a bit more variety, but it didn't ruin my overall trip. 🌟

Just a top selection for a city break in Riverside with very good value for money. The mattress felt a bit hollow, but the location was convenient for my plans. Bring your own towels, just in case.

dismissive staff

lack of cleanliness

When I raised the concerns, the staff were dismissive and unhelpful, suggesting I should just leave if I didn't like it. I ended up leaving after just 30 minutes and seeking accommodations elsewhere. On a positive note, the home-baked Alentejo bread would have been a pleasant offering if the stay had improved.
