What a lovely little hotel! I cant sing the praises of all the staff enough! Before the trip I was sending questions and asking for advise, all by email and I was getting replies so quickly. When I was there the staff again were so helpful, kind, curious, really nothing was too much. The room I had was a single room, the bed was a comfy double, but the room was tiny, the bathroom was adequate with a 700 x 700 shower in the corner (bit of a squeeze for me, but others would be find) window opened in 2 direction and there was a fantastic fully functioning air con unit. A 5min wall from the nearest metro line and about a 15min walk to the centre of the town, and maybe a 30mins walk to the river. Be aware it's all up hill back to the hotel from town! I would recommend and stay here again!

Privately run guest house within east reach of the centre of Porto by bus or metro. Friendly and helpful staff, very welcoming. Everywhere very clean and furnishings all in excellent condition. Rooms are compact but completely adequate. Shutters and air-conditioning, comfortable beds and quiet made for great sleep. Continental breakfast 7:30-10:30, a wide window which was appreciated. The staff went above and beyond ensuring gluten and dairy free foods available. Only slight drawbacks, drinking water and glass only provided on day one in room. No shampoo or shower gel in the room. No fresh milk for tea. Bar sells drinks and snacks. 24 hour reception English speaking staff

They were responsive to my emails prior to my arrival. My flight was delayed in Porto and arrived around 1 am when there was a staff waiting for me upon arrival (24 reception). I'd say the room was enough for me, essentials were provided such as shampoo, and body wash. The room is cleaned every day. The hotel is quite a walk from the old town though (20-30mins), and going back it is a really steepy hill so I'd advise to wear comfy shoes if you're walking to/from the hotel. Although there is a bus stop nearby and Ubers are relatively cheap. Breakfast wise- there is no hot food but you get your bread, fruit, yoghurt (continental breakfast). The staff were very helpful during my stay- very hospitable!! i would book again here to stay if I was in Porto.
