I had a lovely stay at the hotel. It’s in a great location, just a short walk from the water front and away from the tourist crowds. The rooms were modern and clean, plus the staff were really friendly and welcoming. On the downside, the breakfast options were a bit limited, and while the facilities were nice, they could use a little more variety. Overall, great value for money.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it had its strengths, there were a few drawbacks too. The location is convenient, being just outside the main tourist areas and close to the Trindade Metro station, which made it easy to explore Porto. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and I appreciated the air conditioning. However, the dining options weren't the best, and the service could be more attentive. Overall, it offers good value for money, despite some areas needing improvement.
