We reported twice that there was blood stains on our sheets, then we noticed bug bites on our arms, face and hand. We told the hotel receptionist that there are bed bugs on the bed we slept onand all she said was I’m so sorry have a nice day.

The room was good with a balcony to have a pleasant night drink after exploring Porto. The room condition was ok. The straff was really nice. The breakfast was good, but not great. Overall, with all ups and downs, it was a nice place to stay.

Best stay we had on our 2 week vacation to Spain/Portugal. The receptionist was absolutely lovely, quick messages, and a fantastic guide to help us out sent before we arrived with parking info. Loved the little patio and the welcome beverage. Was close to everything but quiet enough we didn’t hear any big city noise.

Fantastic place for Porto

This is just like a hotel, couldn't fault it really. The basic rooms are a bit smaller, but it worked fine for us (a young couple). The superior rooms are really nice. Everything is lovely and clean and comfortable, bathrooms are great, aircon works well. The terrace is a real bonus and the customer service and staff at the check-in desk were excellent. It's in a great area with plenty of bar and restaurants around, nice to see a new bit of the city which has a good vibe.
