We greatly appreciate the property staff's friendliness and excellent communication. The convenient location, just a short walk to Porto, and complimentary parking in the building were definite highlights. However, the bed was uncomfortable, and the shower curtain showed signs of dirt and mold. The amenities were good enough, but the overall decor was unappealing. On a positive note, we value the option to keep our car parked after checking out, avoiding extra parking fees while exploring Porto.

A good hotel with friendly staff near Gaia!!!

The location was perfect, and around a minute walk to the nearest metro station. The person in-charge of the property (don't want to mention his name because of privacy reasons) was friendly to the guests. The breakfast was also good. The rooms with the private bathrooms were clean, spacious, and met our expectations.

Clean. Quiet. Safe. Well organized and maintained. Close to Luis I bridge and a great spot in Gaia. Fantastic breakfast. Definitely worth the money. I only wish the water taps and shower heads would have a 'silent mode'.

Spanish, Porto holiday

Great place to stay. Didn’t realise our bathroom was outside the room but worked it out ok. Great breakfast, helpful and friendly staff. Easy walk to the main attraction or an easy tram ride outside. Supermarket nearby, use of kitchen was a bonus.. very clean, tidy, big room and deck. When arriving god leads you to directly to 1125 which highlights finance company, trust the gas and check the door at 1125 , the hotel is not identified from outside by name highly recommend this place, would stay here again

Amazing Place - Hidden Gem in Porto

The Hotel is Amazing, The rooms are very comfortable and really have a home away from home feel. The host are especially wonderful and very helpful and made everything possible to make us feel welcomed and have a memorable stay in Porto. Truly a hidden gem in the city. The Hotel is located very close to a metro station and walking distance from Sao Bento (close to major tourist spots), and a good mall for shopping with a good food court. The hotel is located in a multi room apartment and is not so easily visible from outside, the host did whats app us the building images to find our way there. The breakfast was very satisfying, not a buffet but a well planned full meal with fresh cut fruits. We had booked the Suite room with private bathroom, there is also option for rooms with shared bathroom in the corridor. The place is very clean and well organised, it also has a kitchen and a common room for small gatherings or meeting (Not sure if it is a public space or just for the host, we did not really use the space during our stay). Overall, i would definitely recommend this place for your stay in Porto.

Bit of an odd checkin, had a hard time finding the place. Travel agency we found next door had never heard of it but had the good sense to look closely at the address, which solved that problem! But let's just say they have a low-key street presence. :-) A bit more basic than many of our Portugal stays but not lacking because out needs are actually pretty basic too. Good breakfasts, good transport (right by metro & hop on/off), grocery across the street.

I select this for the area. But it’s residential property not hotel. Lack of communication. We reached from Lisbon by train. Waited at the entrance rang bell many times no answer. We were lucky someone let us in the building. Next we waited at Origami door steps rang bell several times called their phone number twice thrice times no answer. Contact Hotels.com must be more than 45-50mins we were on phone and on verge of cancellation and book new accommodation. And some guy turned up. Guess what. The receptionist was sleeping inside and couldn’t hear anything. Reception is open during day time till four. We waited from 2pm to 4pm to get in. Room is good size. But no service at all. You get one thin towel per person. You use that through out your stay. No one cleans even dustbin. Breakfast of sour milk coffee? Good fruits. Never again. Good thing is Guy Navin was apologies over and over again.

Very good location, there is a Tram stop right out front and you are only a 10 minute walk from the bridge. I got a glass of Port when I checked in. (one glass goes a long way after a transatlantic flight!) My only knock on the place is the room doors are thin. You can hear anyone moving in the hallway outside your room. It's a small place though, so there aren't a ton of people roaming around.

Could nit even get into the place!

Arrived at the property at approx 2100hrs having already informed them of arrival time was not able to gain access to the apartment building even though according to Expedia reception open until 2200hrs! In the end had to find another hotel which we knew about in the local area from a previous visit, which was sold out on Expedia but they managed to find a room but we had to pay a higher rate for this. Complained to Expedia about this property and they offered us a £25.00 credit which did not even cover the cost of the original booking as the property would not authorise a refund. After a short debate Expedia agreed to refund the total booking amount. Would definitely not recommend this property if this is the level of service you can expect.
