Residencia Alicante

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The five-story Residência Alicante is located a bit east of the Marquês de Pombal (walk-a-phobes, beware; it's a bit of a trek into central Lisbon).

The 50 rooms, which branch off of well-lit hallways, are medium-sized and comfortable. The Alicante offers single rooms on up through quadruple rooms, though the latter would be more appropriate for families with young children than four adults.

There's little in the way of décor, but wooden floors, fresh furniture and pleasant bedding make rooms cheerful. All have nice closet space, a small writing desk and air conditioning. Televisions are small. Bathrooms are clean and modern with fresh shower stalls and good lighting.

All in all, the Alicante is a solid option. Whatever it may lack in personality is compensated for by just rates and steady service (not to mention an elevator).
