Excelente.
Pros:

Gostei muito do atendimento prestado não só pelo Sr. José, que virou amigo, mas também pelo Nuno e Fabiola. Todos sempre prontos e solícitos a nos atender. Fizeram parte da nossa boa estadia no Porto. A localização é a melhor possível, bem no burburinho do centro, como queríamos.

Cons:

Nada. Gotei de tudo.

Excellent stay, will come back many times
Pros:

I really liked the location, the accessibility to the central town, and the staff. The beds were comfortable, the shower was hot, and I had a lovely balcony. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

It needs a fridge, but that’s it! It would’ve been nice to have cold water and store some food in the fridges.

Buena relación calidad precio
Pros:

El personal era muy amable. La habitación de tamaño adecuado, con una pequeña terraza, camas muy cómodas. El desayuno variado y bueno. Bien ubicado, a unos 10min andando del centro. Buena relación calidad precio.

Cons:

El lavabo del baño era excesivamente pequeño. Las juntas de la ducha estaban sucias. La puerta de la habitación estaba muy vieja y el pestillo por dentro no cerraba.

Simple but excellent location and value for money. Would recommend.
Pros:

The beds were comfortable and clean. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The location was great next to the Bolhão market and the price was affordable. It exceeded expectations.

Cons:

We had two rooms and one was noticably noiser than the other as a result of being at the back next to the air conditioning units.

Pros:

Hôtel très central, pratique pour explorer le centre ville. Chambre simple, climatisée et bon accueil. Idéal pour un court séjour.

Cons:

Le lit double était trop petit (plus court que 200cm dans la longueur) pour des personnes grandes comme nous (1m75 et 1m92). Le lavabo de la salle de bain également très petit et surtout très bas.

Cons:

Nos hemos alojado dos noches. Ya sabía que el hotel no tenía ascensor y había leído comentarios sobre el ruido, pero no imaginaba hasta qué punto.

El aislamiento acústico es prácticamente inexistente. Se escucha absolutamente todo: cada pisada, las escaleras, las duchas, el baño, las tuberías… Da la sensación de dormir en una casa de madera donde compartes habitación con todo el hotel. El ruido dificulta mucho el descanso.

Por lo demás, las camas están bien y el baño, aunque pequeño, está reformado y correcto. Pero el problema del ruido es, para mí, un aspecto muy importante a tener en cuenta antes de reservar.

La posizione eccellente ma la camera decisamente scadente
Pros:

Solamente la posizione vicinissima alla fermata della metro

Cons:

La camera presentava molti difetti: l’acqua della doccia era fredda, gli interruttori per le prese erano praticamente nascosti in quanto erano collocati in basso dietro i comodini per cui molto scomodi da utilizzare. La stanza aveva un odore di umidità che provoca dal pavimento in legno che necessita di manutenziine
