In room 117 and 118 very good beds. Breakfast is perfect and nutricious, space to sit a little bit narrow. Excellent service and advise from Staff. Metro at 300 m. Rooms simple but sufficient furnished. Cafetaria Nelma at ca. 200 m. in de rua De Bonjardin has a simple but very good and affordable kitchen. Best fries ever and one should taste the homemade scamps or the bread with a thick layer of beef topped with cheese. Very good hotel for citytrip or a bit longer, specially for this price. I was with 7 friends but will return with my family.

The hotel staff was very friendly and always available too answer any questions. We felt very welcome. Breakfast was good. The room was comfortable and very clean. There was also free wifi in the room. We'll probably go back to Porto some day and then we'll definitely try to book the same hotel.

First of all, hotel staff were very helpful with everything. Hotel is located very close to metro station and the street was very quiet. Cleanliness of the room was perfect. If i visit Porto again, its gonna be the hotel that i will stay for sure.

Much better, cleaner, nicer than most the other cheap hotels and hostels I have been to. No cigarette smoke. Breakfast included. Quiet street. Not far from the center and close to the metro (Faria Guimaraes). Bed is ok. Can be noisy during the day due to use of water by others. Water easily gets on the bathroom floor when taking shower.

I like everything about this hotel. The breakfast is great for this type of hotel. The staffs are very helpful (we stored our baggage after we checked out for 4 hours and they didn´t mind) The location is also great (very near to a metro station). I will definitely stay in this hotel if someday i will visit Porto again!

It is a nice small hotel. We were there 5 nights. Clean, near to the city and the Metro also to the city center. You can walk to the most of the places those are in and around the hotel. Breakfast is ok, but that would be better if they can change the menu every day bit by adding some more varieties.

Nice, helpful and understanding staff (helped on all requests and also didn't mind an accidentaly broken plate), good breakfast (for value), well placed near metro and within walking distance from the city center. Quiet area. Good choice if you're on a budget. The room was rather small and there was not much comfort, and you could hear when there were noisy neighbors in the corridor. But I guess it's what you can expect for such a price.

The word which describes this hotel is Perfect. I am always very critical with accomodation, and I notice every tiny mistake, but in here there was not even the tiniest mistake. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room and the bathroom was well equiped and nice looking. We got the room on the top so from the balcony we could look over the city. If I were visiting Braga again I would insist on booking my room in this hotel.

Excellent value, 3mins from metro, helpful staff, good breakfast included in room cost, water was hot, Location in an area which was fairly run down (but then most of Porto is like that!) a very small bath and there was a small plate in the bathroom floor which was loose and the water from other rooms flowed under our bathroom floor...which was noisy!

Hotel staff are very friendly and willing to help us in any ways. The rich selection of buffet breakfast is definitely worth the value. It is also very close to a metro station and we even walked downhill to the city center in 15mins. My husband and I really enjoyed stay here and would love to come back some day.

Our stay was very comfortable and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was good for the price and was cleaned very well every day. The breakfast was good and again service was very helpful. There was a noisy room one night but the staff delt with it very quickly and politely. The hotel is situated above the city center and it was a long climb if you decided to walk back, but the buses and metro were convenient if you preferred. We would definitately stay there again. No rugby world cup on tv!
