Hi Julien, We really appreciate the time you spend giving us your incredible feedback. Happy to see that you loved our gorgeous pool area and lovely staff. We know that the property is really big and can get confusing…but as it is an old convent and national heritage, there’s many structures that we had to maintain doing the best we could to get it as comfortable as possible.

Hi Sarah, We really appreciate the time you took to leave us your incredible review! 😊 Great to know you loved our carefully thought spaces as all the bedroom equipment…next time you travel, make sure to see if there’s any Locke property there, because that’s part of our concept! Provide to our guest a home, away from it. 😊 We couldn’t have a licence to build the pool on the top floor, but regarding the seats, there’s already more beds on the way, so hopefully the next time you visit us you’ll see it for yourself as the new restaurants and bars that we are about to open! 😊 Cheers Lourenço and Locke Santa Joana Team

Response from Management
Hi Nathan, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about your stay. We're truly sorry to hear about the issues you encountered and the frustrating experience you had with our service and facilities. We apologize for the check-in experience, as well as the confusion around cleaning schedules and the lack of proper room maintenance. This is far from the experience we aim to provide, and we’ll work with our team to ensure that guests feel welcomed and well-supported during their stay. It’s also disappointing to hear about the issues with the room’s condition, from the bathroom door to the showerhead and water jug. This certainly should have been addressed immediately, and we’ll look into these matters to prevent similar incidents from happening again. We appreciate your feedback on the pool as well. While it’s designed more as a social space, we understand how this could be inconvenient for guests looking to swim or relax more traditionally. Thank you again for your feedback. We’ll take all your points into consideration to improve our service, and we hope you’ll give us another opportunity to provide a better experience in the future. Please let me know if you will be available for a call since I've been trying to reach without success. Thank you. Bruno

Response from Management
Hi Fraser, We are glad to know that your stay with us went so well and that our staff was up to the task and received you as an old friend. Regarding the storage issues, Block D, where your room was located, was a former convent and national heritage, which forced us to maintain the structure and was a challenge for that rooms design, however, we will ascertain your constructive review and study possible improvements. Of course it is, we hope to host you again soon so you can prove them or try a different room layout. Cheers Lourenço & Locke Santa Joan Team

I say a bit, because we are still improving and aiming to get better each day! :) We are on top of the pool issues, and finding solutions that fit our guests needs. ( more beds on the way ) Regarding the pool size, we wish it was bigger, but due to the building specifications ( old convent & national heritage ) we had some rigid guidelines. But there's always room for improvement, and we will take your notes in consideration.. We hope to host you again soon for you to see it! :) Cheers! Lourenço & Locke Santa Joana team

Response from Management
Hey Graham! Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback! We're happy to know you enjoyed our privileged location! As for the less positive, first of all let me start by apologizing for the lack of information you came across regarding the opening of Kissaten. Despite the fact that this was only a soft opening and it's a period of optimizing and improving everything, that is definitely not up to standard, and we will pass the information to our food and beverage director, to make sure this situation doesn't repeat itself in future outlet openings. As for the prices, as this is a whisky bar, we do have some more expensive (premium) options available. I hope this makes sense, and it doesn't stop you from returning, as we are opening more outlets within the next few weeks that have different concepts and are definitely worth a try! Warm regards, Carlota & Locke de Santa Joana Team
