The notes

What the sources say (research)

  • Two floors; “upstairs might be better for working”; “lots of outlets by the tables”; music not too loud. “The main communal table on the first level is off-limits for laptops.” Very busy at weekends, so come at opening. [asinglewomantraveling.com, 15 Jul 2025]
  • The operator confirms Santos is laptop friendly and open daily 08:00–18:00; Wi-Fi and the downstairs table restriction come from third-party reports, so check on arrival. [do-beco.com, 14 Oct 2026; asinglewomantraveling.com, 15 Jul 2025]
