First time in Porto, loved it and can’t wait to go back.
Pros:

One of the best locations in the city with direct views of the river.

Cons:

River front can get busy at night, especially at the weekend but apartment has good sound proofing.

It was lovely, the staff was lovely and polite. We stayed on the night of Sao Joao so was great that they limited access
Pros:

It was spacious and clean with lots of little extras that were given for free. A really lovely gesture

Cons:

It was very noisy outside but I suppose that’s what happens when you live in the city centre so we have to take the good with the “bad” no reflection on the hotel

Pros:

Large sized room - in fact, we had two rooms. A sitting area/living room and a separate bedroom. Great bathroom and shower. Also had a nice breakfast each morning.

Cons:

Our only complaint was the noise. If you want to be right in the middle of the action - and on the water (which was nice) - you have to put up with a lot of street noise.

Pros:

very central position in on the river in the old town

Cons:

despite being advised that taxi's have the necessary permission to enter the old town and get to the hotel, our taxi dumped us on the roadside leaving us to struggle with luggage down the narrow cobblestone pathways whilst trying to find the location of the hotel. I think arrival instructions could be better handled maybe provided to give to the taxi driver.

Heerlijke vakantie gehad!
Pros:

Toplocatie, mooie kamer, heerlijk ontbijt en super vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Locatie is direct aan de boulevard, waar de hele dag/avond live muziek wordt gespeeld. Wij vonden dit wel gezellig, maar wel goed om te weten.

Great location and charming place
Pros:

The location was great, however can be a little hard to find initially. Had great views of the river and pretty much was in the center of it all. The suite was perfect for our family of 4.
