Voor 1 nachtje prima
Pros:

De ligging en de vriendelijke vrouw van de receptie

Cons:

Het is een erg gedateerd muf hotel met een minimaal ontbijt. De ligging en de vriendelijkheid maken veel goed

Fica numa pracinha muito linda.

Lo céntrico que es y lo amplia que son las habitaciones. Muy cómodo en general.

Authentiek en sfeervol. Perfect voor ons en de kids
Pros:

De ligging is ideaal om porto te bezoeken. Heel centraal. De sfeer is heerlijk oud en authentiek. Schoon. We verbleven in een familie kamer. Met een tweepersoonsbed en 2 eenpersoons bedden voor de kids in een ruimte naast de onze vonden we ideaal.

Cons:

Wat achterstallig onderhoud.

Wish we could have stayed longer!
Pros:

The host, Regina, was so helpful! She helped me organize mailing a parcel to Santiago de Compostela. The room was simple and clean. The pastries at breakfast were delicious and the location in Porto was good for exploring the city.

Het hotel is gedateerd, maar heeft zijn charmes. Heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Vrij sober ontbijt, maar verse pistolee
Pros:

Netjes! Heel vriendelijk onthaal én behulpzaam personeel.

Cons:

Verouderd en flinterdunne muren.
