It was exactly what we expected from our stay. The hotel was very well situated away from the busy section of the city but easy to walk to the main areas of Porto. We had a lovely stay

The staff was wonderful and very helpful but it's a little bit out of the way, although not too far from the Metro. There really aren't very many places to eat in the area. The air conditioning did not really work very well, maybe not at all.

Hotel staff is very friendly and it was very clean- breakfast was wonderful as well as self park facility. Due to construction in the area it was a little difficult to get around the hotel and it also has no gym. No snacks or restaurants for lunch or dinner- only a bar with limited snack selection

Had an excellent stay. Room clean, spacious with comfortable beds. Staff at check in were very pleasant and we were able to check in 45mins early.
