Shower room was tiny and water is low, we stayed at the third floor, no elevator

Dorothy, United States of America

Willingness to keep our luggage after checkout time.

Lynn, United States of America

The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was neat and tidy with marble floor and stairs. The breakfast was tasty and had a varied spread of food. The hotel was an easy downhill walk into the main area of downtown Porto.

I was given the room on the ground floor which is in two facades of the building. Very exposed room and has a huge window in the bathroom where the bath tub is so I’m not entirely sure if I have not given a show to bypassers while taking a shower. Not impressed I asked for another room but they said they had no other rooms available
The location is not bad, in a quiet area close to Marques and the metro

There was no ambience about the hotel. I was told there was a restaurant & bar, this wasn't the case. I was also told there would be tea/coffee in room, there wasn't but it was provided but I paid extra for this.
The WiFi was consistent and the location, when used with a travel card was good. The room and bathroom were clean.
