Pros +

  • The location was central to downtown Porto.

  • Location is fabulous.

Cons -

  • The rooms are older and very spare and basic. Don't expect much but given the price it was acceptable.
  • There is a club nearby and on a Saturday had music until 4 ish am. Sunday night was quiet. Not sure if this is an every weekend thing or a one time thing.
  • There was no wifi or TV.

Front desk staff amazing for all shifts! Location of this hotel is fantastic, we were on the 5th floor and had a beautiful view! Close to Sao Bento train station and in the heart of the old town so walking distance to everything! able to leave bags early
There was construction out front but no fault of the hotel. Yes there are 27 steps to get to the lift but we did not mind, you walk up and down hills and steps all over Porto, if you cannot this is not the country for you! We loved it!
