Good little base for exploring porto

I know for some people having to leave your key at reception is jarring and confusing but in practice it's not too inconvenient as the hardworking hostess is always at reception at all hours. The location is great for access to a direct metro to/from the airport, although it's not right in the centre of the action. I would recommend this hotel if you're happy to use the metro and/or walk into the centre

A great location for visiting the walkable city of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia just over the river. It's clean and the reception is friendly. It's not luxurious but (a) you knew that when you saw the price and (b) you're going out first thing in the morning and coming back last thing at night, you came here to see Portugal, no the inside of a room. Only thing I would say to Expedia is, we got the non-smoking room we asked for but you describe the property as smoke free, and I am not convinced it is.

Overall good but broken doors

Hotel was in a good location and nice for what we wanted. My only issue is the double door to the small balcony was swollen and didn't close. We closed the shutters and doors best possible but unfortunately could hear the traffic from the busy street all night.

Rude receptionist (Lady)

I have arrived 2 hours before the check in time, I approach very friendly to the receptionist and asked if I could check in earlier because my flight was on that time and there is no where else for me to go, that I could even pay a bit extra if necessary. Her answer”do you want me to get in to the room and wake people up after that smash them out for you to have a room on this time??!!, have you seen anywhere else check in being before 3pm?!! “ To be honest, I felt so bad that I couldn’t even talk!! I just answered “THANK YOU” Apart of her, all went good after checked in. But I won’t go back again to this Hostel.

Got to the reception and was meet by a women who didn’t speak very good English,Filled out all the forms and was told I needed to pay €6 euro bedroom fee..No problem went to pay with my card but they only took cash..No problem I will get to the cash machine and draw it out for you..All day and the following day i was meet with “You owe me €6 euro today” She was very rude and hounded me for this €6 even though I paid when booking £10 for another “tax”..The hotel it self stunk from every corner of cigarette smoke constantly! It was disgusting to the point I had to leave my window open all day and night to try and air the smell out! Didn’t work bearing in mind we was on a busy road so the noise was constant! The bathroom is so small you can’t move when showering if you can shower that is! The bed the sheets where damp and not dry! Your key you have to leave behind the reception if you leave so any one can have a nosey in your room! All in all a really bad experience and would never book here again.

Det var en billig overnatning og som sådan ok. Rengøringen var ikke super god og det lugtede af bl.a. af røg i værelserne. Der er en markant støj fra gadens biler. Check-in og receptionen var helt okay.
