Close (walking distance) to old and other areas of city including Porto Cathedral, pedestrian (and Metro) bridge across the river and major train station. Simple, clean, and enough room. Breakfast self-service buffet good, (was included in my reservation). Bus stop close to hotel. Quiet, mainly commercial neighborhood.
United States of AmericaThe property is within a walking distance of all major attractions of the city
United States of AmericaFor a 2 star hotel everything was more than amazing. The staff here are extremely well trained and incredibly helpful. They made our stay ten times better with their attitude and friendliness, even going above and beyond in helping me with a booking mistake. The hotel is also really great, sparkling clean and an incredible location. Just two small recommendations (but which did not affect my opinion whatsoever, just as a good to have in the future) from my side to make the experience even better: a few vegetables at the breakfast and a 'Do not disturb' sign for the rooms. Thank you very much for making it an incredile stay, one of the best experiences ever.

United KingdomThe location is perfect, slap bang in the heart of Porto, walking distance to all the essentials: bars, Maus Habitos, great restaurants, coffee shops and the cathedral. The staff are great and it’s so cheap! Cheaper than Airbnb.
