Good value

Very friendly service. Room was small but clean, good bed and hot shower. In a quiet area about a half hour walk from the historic centre. Good restaurants, cafés and laundromats nearby. Basic but price is very good compared to downtown.

The owners were super nice... a very elderly couple and their son. My room was basic but clean. They turned it over every day. The only thing was the common area had a strong smell from a cat, I think.

This has to be the worst hotel I've stayed in Europe. I arrived past 9 in the evening ring the bell and I had to wait outside in the rain and cold for a good 10-15 minutes. I do not speak Portuguese or Spanish and the owners speak very little English - so communication throughout my stay was terrible. There is a strong smell of cat urine or poo in the common area and even my room. My room was not cleaned on my second day, no WIFI and there was a leak at the top of the shower which I reported - they only said it was a holiday and basically did nothing. The single room was too small - I am an average size asian guy and I had to squeeze myself in the toilet and shower. The room gets really really cold as well. I am trying to think of something good about this place but I can't think of anything.

Udemærket sted, man får hvad man betaler for

Hotellet er OK. Man får, hvad man betaler for. Fint sted at sove, men der er ikke plads til ophold eller lignende på hotellet. Det ligger lidt langt væk fra Porto centrum. Generelt er vi fint tilfredse med stedet, som sovested, men det er heller ikke mere. En venlig vært, der ikke snakker engelsk, men hans søn kunne heldigvis engelsk og hjalp med at tjekke ind.

Traditionelle Pension in Porto

Die Rezeption ist erst ab 15:00 besetzt. Einchecken ist vorher nicht möglich. Sehr schönes traditionelles portugiesisches Haus in ruhiger Wohngegend. Supermarkt und preiswertes Café für Frühstück sind in der Nähe. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich. Alles sehr sauber und sicher, Zimmer wird täglich gereinigt. Vom Flughafen kann man mit der Metro ohne umsteigen bis zur Station Lapa fahren und von dort laufen, ca. 15 Minuten. Stadtzentrum ist fußläufig zu erreichen ca. 30 Minuten.

On s'y sens bien, l'établissement est bien décoré et les chambres sont calme. Le gérant est vraiment accueillant et bienveillant! Seuls bémols, l'éclairage dans la chambre et la salle de bain était un peu faible à notre goût, et la porte vitré de la baignoire n'est pas vraiment hermétique. Et enfin 2 étages sans ascenseur ce n'est pas evident avec les bagages. Nous recommondons cependant.
