Avoid this terrible apartment. Worst service ever

Terrible apartment. Terrible service. Check-iin was very difficult and the room was mis-described. We left and did not even stay. Several guests were complaining at the same time. There was no reception, it is being decorated. It is all remote from Spain. I am awaiting a refund. Worst experience ever on Hotels.com

As some other reviews mentioned, this property doesn’t have 24-hour service. I can’t tell what hours customer service works, but initially they were responsive. Upon arrival, the provided door code didn’t work. If you check in outside of the hours that cleaning crew is there, you risk being stranded. I say this because the very last night, it appeared that the front door stopped working for all guests. I immediately raised the issue to customer service via chat. After a few minutes dealing with their bot, it said I’m being connected to customer service agent. This was almost 72 hours ago and no one still has responded. Luckily, someone was able to open the door from the inside. I’ve since left the property and will not stay at any of their properties again and I recommend you do not either. The risk and terrible customer service is not worth it.

A great place for the price once you get in.

The online paperwork, was a little of a pain and having to find a place to get Wi-Fi access so I could get the cobe was inconvenient, but once we got in I was surprised by how good the place was. A move selection of food and drink in the room. Tools to let you self cater, a nice view in our room 2b. A great place for the price once you get in.

The hotel was easy to find with our GPS and we were able to park across the street. The hotel was an easy walk to the old part of town and there were several restaurants nearby. We were welcomed and given much information about sightseeing and how to get to the interesting places. I would highly recommend this guest house.

Overall, the guesthouse was fine, the host was pleasant, the area was nice. However, wifi wasn't working 90% of the time, and the toilet button was very hard to press. It would be nice if the guesthouse offered breakfast since most of options in the area include only pastries.

Quiet, modern hotel close to centre

Cosme is a cool, modern hotel within 15 mins' walk of the centre. We received a very friendly welcome, were offered drinks and given a very helpful introduction to the city and a map marking key places to see. The room was bright and decorated nicely and looked out on an attractive, quiet side street. There was a kettle and coffee and tea provided. Breakfast was absolutely fantastic - a generous selection of breads, pastries, jams, fruit, cereal, eggs etc. all presented nicely on a sideboard in an attractive breakfast room. A really nice place, perfect for exploring Porto. We'd definitely stay again.

Lovely Guesthouse

Lovely guesthouse, centrally located and only 5 minutes from the metro. Welcomed on arrival, and given a map of the city with directions which was really helpful. Breakfast is lovely and varied slightly daily, but tended to be cold cuts (variety of cheeses, hams/meats) and bread, cornflakes, jams and a few sweeter cakes/biscuits. Lots of coffee, tea and juice available too. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable. Could perhaps do with an additional arm chair as the sofa only sits two, but otherwise pretty perfect.
