Old hotel and a bit outdated but the place is ok if you go there in the summer and want to stay nearby the beach (15/20 minutes walking). Wouldn't go there in the winter.

Stayed here for a night as it was one of the few options close to Praia de Macas, Praia Grande beaches, but i found it overpriced. Paid around €50-60/night without breakfast, the front desk didnt seem very welcoming, the hotel decor was out of date and you definitely need a car to stay in this hotel, by walk its not close enough to anything (beach, restaurants for dinner) and didnt see much public transport around either.
The biggest problem is that the hotel itself is quite big, yet it only has parking place in front for about 5-6 cars. If you not lucky to find one there, you need to leave the car on the side of the road, which is not the safest option.
Overall it was ok, clean, spacious, but probably i wouldnt stay here again.

The hotel was outdated, the reception made us feel unwelcome. The furniture was generally weird looking and old fashioned. Ridiculously small and bad TV.
The hairdryer in the bathroom is not effective...
Extremely thin walls, we felt like people were inside of our room in the morning as we could hear everyone.

If we go back we won't stay there. It's cheap, you get what you pay for.

We were visiting Sintra (not far away, at least as the crow flies -- rural roads in Portugal are a real adventure however) and picked the VIP Miramonte for its unbeatable price (32 euro/night). The place has the feel of a summer camp or a university dormitory, but we were there in December and it was practically deserted. (Oddly, there was one other couple in our building, and they were given the adjacent room.) The vast grounds of the hotel (which takes up several three-story buildings) is pretty and charming, and full of greenery. The only hotel facility we actually used besides our room was the ping-pong table, but that was only because we were busy touring Sintra and getting lost when the GPS would lose contact with the satellite. The room itself was not the quietest, but everything worked and it was all very clean and proper. The staff were helpful and polite with directions, maps and so forth. Parking could be a problem at peak season but for us in December it was fine.
