    The street was a bit noisy, but we adjusted to it.

    Classic, Simple room at fair price and good staff. Given full time reception, we were able to check in slightly early. Well located to the Center.

    Great location - not far from Campanha train station and city center. Air-conditioner, bath, bidet, hair-dryer. I arrived in the morning and was allowed to leave my buggage. They also help me with a transfer to the airport.

    The only strange thing was a noise (not very loud, you needed to pay attention to it) that cyclically appeared during the night, and staff appeared to be quite tired.

    Location is central, great, strategic. We haven't tried breakfast. Bed was quite comfortable but the room was quite small, not so much, we just stayed a night but if you'll stay longer you will need more space probably. I liked furniture and decorations in the room and the hotel in general

    It is a dated hotel and the furniture in the rooms reflect this. The bathroom could use some tender loving care. A bit noisy at times. The night staff did not speak adequate English.

    The location is excellent, a very good base to explore Porto. Right next to Capela das Almas, Bolhao and Rua de Santa Catarina. Very convenient if you travel by car, it has a small parking for small cars and there are two parking stations around the corner. The room was very big (actually consisting of two rooms, one with a small double bed and one with two singles). The price was very good for Porto. The bistro at the corner and the food court in the shopping center are worth a visit.

    Everything was great! 100% recommend and I'd absolutely stay here again.

    The staff is great! Everyone was really nice and helpful. The location is unbeatable. You're literally within walking distance of everywhere. It doesn't take longer than 2-3 minutes to get to some of the nicest walking streets, shops and restaurants, and top sights. Plus, the rooms feel a bit more antique in the photos but they're really nice in real life. So, the photos don't really show how nice the rooms are. Everything was super clean. The rooms are cleaned every day and everyone is just really there for you to help if there's anything.

    The hotel is conveniently located in the center of old Porto with a walking distance to main tourist attractions. The metro station is just two minutes walk from the hotel.

    Don’t arrive too late for the breakfast because there will be only few things left and we here a lot the noise from the corridor, ventilation and other rooms.

    Everything was clean and the staff was very nice! The hotel is also very well located in Porto.

    If you want to sleep with open window you can have noise from the street. But there is airco. Bathroom a bit old, but ok for us (every day clean towels).

    93€ for 2 nights, 2 persons! Really good. Clean, wifi in the room, you can park very close for 11€ / day, double Windows against the noise. Simple bood good price / quality balance! Next time we check again.

    You could hear people entering and leaving their rooms, as well as their talks in the hallway. The doors don't isolate much the noice.

    Comfortable bedding, everything very clean and the location was perfect. They allowed me to check in earlier as there was already a room available.

    There was 1 night we did not have hot water supply to shower- guess the water pressure was too low. Hope they can have better facility.

    Great location, very close to underground and shopping area, there are also lots of good restaurants nearby.
