Welcoming and communicative staff (thank you Sandra), Very clean and comfortable stay, centrally located if you like to walk to everything in Gaia!
This property exceeded our expectation for the price, and we would happily stay again.
Best hotel as it is more like a studio apartment with kitchenette (refrigerator, etc) and within walking distance of the river, highly recommend and would stay here again, a little confusing how to get there by walking from the train station but probably could have taken a taxi from the train
Amazing hotel, amazing staff. Thank you Ana. Beautiful neighborhood and hotel close to everything. View from the terrace on 5th floor breathtaking. Highly recommended. Will be back for sure.
Really perfect spot to stay near Porto. Very walkable, near a pedestrian bridge right into the main tourist part of the city.
Lovely appartement, breathtaking view of Porto across the water.
Only cons:
The unit needs a little TLC, and the shower is tiny, needs to be updated.
- overall, great!
Wonderful people working ther,e too.
Super cute apartment hotel. Staff are great. Awesome location. Skip the breakfast as it's a bagged affair and not very good. You're better off walking down the street to find something on the water.
This is a perfect affordable option without compromising comfort and is very eco-friendly at that. It was indeed a home away from home and more close to living as a local than other mainstream hotels.
The staff are more than willing to help answer any questions and provide tips for exploring this beautiful city. I fell in love with both the accommodations and the place.
Very cute accommodations , with kitchenette, you however have to ask for fresh towels and since staff not there 24/7 this can be a problem if you are returning late and want to take a shower
A two minute walk to the riverside or if you are crazy an hour and half to the coast. Yes we did and slept really well😂
Good quality fittings, some ageing gracefully. Excellent friendly helpful staff. The roof terrace has great views. I’d forgotten my trunks so didn’t try the spa pool. Great central location to explore Porto.
Muito Obrigado
First off, Sandra from reception was extraordinary! Above and beyond helpful and made our stay that much better. It’s in a perfect location, walking distance to everything you would want to see. Rooms were clean and felt new/modern. Definitely returning. Parking is included but a little bit of a mission to get to, but Sandra came with us and guided us the entire way! Such a sweetheart!
Siisti asunto ja huippu maisemat parvekkeelta. Sängyt hyvät ja asunnon sai pimeäksi. Ystävällinen ja iloinen palvelu. Ekstrana oli kattouima-allas, mitä saimme käyttää. Lähellä kauppa ja ravintolat sekä Portoon lyhyt matka. Voin suositella.
Jos jotain negatiivista, niin keittiötaso pieni, jos on tarkoitus valmistaa enempi ruokaa
