Wonderful little hotel! Great service by very kind front desk staff. The little garden they have is so pretty. Our room was in the "basement" but it faced the garden and still got plenty of daylight. Breakfast was lovely. The only downside was seeing some homeless people further down the street, and a group of men drinking alcohol. Not something that's the hotel's fault though. I still walked down there at night, but it felt a bit unsafe.

Séjour de 1 semaine

Accueil très chaleureux. Nous sommes arrivés en provenance du Canada et ils nous ont accueilli à 9:00 avec un déjeuner et ont gardé nos valises vu que la chambre n’était pas prête. Café, eau et salle disponible pour y manger (avec notre nourriture) Notre départ était très tôt et ils nous ont préparé une assiette avec quelques trucs pour manger. Air climatisé très fonctionnel! Pas de réfrigérateur, mais il y a une épicerie à 5 minutes de marche avec un comptoir de prêt à manger. (Pinco Dolce) Chinese store près de l’épicerie. Stationnement disponible à 12 euros par jour très pratique. Juste à côté et on peut entrer et sortir à notre guise.

The staff were super welcoming and helpful! The location is convenient to the metro to the airport, and close to the busy areas of Porto, with just enough distance to be quiet and relaxing. The room has a lovely balcony and (important for the summer!) great AC! Also, the breakfast spread is lovely with plenty of options beyond bread & jam -- fresh juice, fruit, pastries, yogurt, cereal, eggs, cold cuts, etc.
