Nice hotel in Porto

Nice hotel about a 10 minute walk to the metro. Rooms were comfortable and staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was nice with selection of breads, cold meats and cheese, fruit, some pastries, eggs and coffee/tea.

Helpful desk. Clean. No elevator- should enquire age of client for room availability on lower floor. Long life milk for coffee outside of breakfast time. Glasses in room. Safe in room. Couple drawers for clothes.

10/10 Exceptional

Staff were helpful and courteous. The challenge for me was the limited orden e of staff. After 5 there is nobody around. The receptionist responds if you send an email about a specific concern or question but you do lot have the associated services Such as access to information, getting a taxi, etc. there’s nobody.

La habitación que nos dieron era húmeda y fría, seguramente que en verano es más agradable pero para el mes de octubre es muy húmeda. Solo tenían 2 habitaciones en el patio interior. Muy buen desayuno. El hotel limpio y cuidado.

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.

Excellent but not in rooms 101

All excellent - from stuff that give us basic info and for stuff that organise breakfast. All 5+ Only location for room in basemant - really bad. Noise, can not open window because lot of cars drive there fast. If come to Porto will again come here but try sleep on second floor.
