We have pre-paid for two double rooms, but when we arrived to Pensao Lafonense, we were told to go to one of their "sister" hotels - at hotel that was more far away from the city center and it was also less expensive, but we didn't got any refund. You simply can't trust them at Pensao Lafonense!

After a week in beatiful Portugal we arrived in LIsbon for a couple og nights booked in Pensao Lafoense. This changed they holiday as they did not have room for us anyway. Instead the had booked room in a shitty place far awaf from the city center and at the same price. We had a look at the prices at the new hostel and found a difference of 20 euros a night compared to what we gave. Then we decided at least to have this discount. But after a long struggle instead og 40 euros we got 10 euros. Lissabon was nice but experiences with hustlers like this is the last thing you look for as a tourist far from home.

HUSTLERS - NEVER BOOK AT PENSAO LAFOENSE

ambiente confortevole e giovanile. Consigliato per chi non ha grosse pretese e si accontenta del minimo necessario al prezzo piiù giusto.
