    Steep road to walk up to the property with luggage and steep stairs inside the property but I thankfully only travelled with carry on luggage. It is managable though :)

    Nice spacious en-suit room. The porperty was close to train station, restaurants and tourist areas. Loved my stay here and I will definatly book it again for a next visit to Porto

    The receptionist was rather rude to us and his ability of speaking english was poor. In a country like Portugal that us very hot there is a need of cold water in your room and there was no fridge in the room. There was no window in the room and the room was very small. The stairs for the upper floor were over our bed so the ceiling was very low and we hurt our head many times.

    The location was very good. It was clean.

    Top class location and functional room, location is worth extra much in Porto.

    On the Sunday morning I woke up twice, first at 0130 and then again at 0445, this linked to that you have to ring a doorbell after 2400 to get in, the signal / doorbell was loud and echoes through the reception area and to our room one level higher, this should be done in a different way, avoiding waking up the guest who are not out partying. The rooms are very sensitive to noise from the stairway outside, you wake up when someone gets back late.

    Best location we ever had, always maximum 800m by foot to all what we wanted to see. Small room, but functional.

    The location is good in terms of being close to Saõ Bento train station, Cathedral (Sé) and other sights, is really comfortable/strategic, however the street where it's located, at night can feel sketchy.

    Nice tiny cozy room, very comfortable, the check-in process is very easy and staff replies effectively to any question you may have during your stay.

    The stairs can be daunting. (Andre to the rescue!) The towels are thin and scratchy.

    The property was a lovely modern surprise tucked neatly on a street that looks like it will burst with energy after the construction of the museum across the street. Inside, despite many stairs, was inviting and warm. The staff eagerly helped me with my bag. After a speedy check in, André took a full ten minutes directing us on dinner options. Our light and bright rooms were spacious with huge double glazed windows to the back. The shower was perfect. There is a heater, wall mounted tv, extra pillows and blanket. Breakfast was good. The hotel, two hilly blocks from the Sao Bento train, is in a great location for getting around.

    Temperatures did drop. The heating worked well but with large windows the heat didn't stay in. There was a dripping from bath tap that wouldn't stop. Our room was fairly close to street level so could hear outside noises at night (drunk people). Breakfast was sufficient but not much for a vegetarian or vegan. Even the tongs for the cheese were set to use for sliced meats and cheese (these should be separate) The fruit wasn't topped up until 3 days later, so there was only over ripened bananas as an option most days.

    Location was great, central to everything in the city It was well maintained and the rooms were comfy The guy that checked us in was nice enough to give me a kettle for the stay as it was really cold and wanted hot water for tea.

    Not big issue with accomodation, just could have a problem with a lot of stairs in the hotel. Some vegetables will be good for breakfest.

    Great location. Close to Train station. Nice small hotel with very comfortable beds. Also breakfast was good. We will choose the same hotel for the future.

    Lots of stairs to get to the room which was very small. There was hardly a place to put our bags. And the breakfast, other than the espresso was marginal. Better to go out to a cafe.

    It was clean, beds were good and with the windows closed no street noise. Staffed by nice young people. And it is in a great location.

    Would have given a 10 but the toilet was leaking slightly. A container had been put there by the staff which I emptied each morning. Also there was a slight smell of drains and occasionally cigarette smoke. These seem a lot of issues to only deduct 1 point for and had I been in the room more they may have caused me more distress. However the location is so so good this went a long way to make up for what probably was out of the control of the owners (understand takes time to organise plumber and drains smell is not uncommon in Portugal also cigarette smoke can drift from outside).

    Location - a Hilton is 30 seconds walk down the road and is rated no. 1 in Porto on Trip Advisor. I enjoyed going there for food and drinks- not expensive for a Hilton but the rooms a lot more than here. Guest House is very near the famous bridge, Cathedral and Sao Bento metro and train station (metro exit signed for historic area is nearest - there are two exits for the Sao Bento metro). Recommend National Theatre tour (just uphill from hotel). Visited Braga (lovely Cathedral) and Aveiro (canal type waterways with colourful boats) on train from Sao Bento. Recommend a tourist gets a 24 hr or 72 hr Adante metro ticket 7€ / 15€ if will use metro a lot. Ticket machines for metro and train easily converted to English / other languages. Trains also inexpensive. Taxi from airport (shared fare with others met at Airport) but was only €32 total with 2 separate stops and at 11pm on a Sunday evening. Metro however is only €2 from airport. Metro very easy. Bom Successo market (Casa da Musica Metro) excellent with restaurants and bars within. Leonidas Chocolate shop nearby to there - fabulous. Also Cable Car very good - get on across road from one stop on metro after Sao Bento (first one over the bridge). Or walk over the bridge. Loved Porto! A few people commented street may seem unsafe at night. Yes, there are homeless people sheltering at night particularly in covered areas - also of the Theatre and Cathedral but there is a housing problem in Portugal. I am sure these people are not on the streets by choice. I was never bothered by anyone and came back relatively late on a night.
