Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Exe Saldanha is often praised for its modern feel and surprisingly spacious, bright rooms. Its location is convenient, with easy access to the Saldanha metro station for a direct line to the airport, and the Continente Bom Dia supermarket is just across the street. Guests frequently enjoy the very good breakfast, including fresh pastries and sliced fresh fruit; however, some have noted that the TV reception can be poor. The hotel's proximity to restaurants and a generally quiet area also contribute to a pleasant stay.

decent stay, some issues with the room

leaky shower missing toilet paper

the hotel location was convenient near transport links.

the shower had design flaws, the water leaked all over the floor during each use. cleaning staff also didn't replace toiletries, specifically the toilet paper. this meant i had to ask for a new roll from the reception.

Solid Stay Near Saldanha

nearby supermarket ample space comfy bed

I appreciated the proximity to a supermarket right across the street. The room had ample space and a comfortable bed which was perfect. Leaving my luggage before check-in was not a problem. I also found pastry shops and coffee nearby.

I ended up paying extra to park elsewhere. No toiletries were available, and the room lacked a mini bar. Dinner was not available upon my arrival.
