Just awful. Avoid!

I dont know how this is considered a 3 star hotel. The 'bathroom' was a poorly walled of corner of the room. The beds were the worst I've ever slept on. You could feel the springs and overall, they were very hard. The room reeked of mildew. Because if the bathroom situation there was very little room around the bed. The lighting was awkward. Because the 'bathroom' was in the room with a partial sliding glass door, anyone getting up to use it in the night blasted the other person with very bright lights. The pillows were lumpy. The linens were dingy. They should have spent less on weird decor and more on making the rooms decent.

This hotel is almost like staying in a museum with great memorabilia on display everywhere. The room was a little outdated but very comfortable with good AC. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was reasonably priced and very good. It was a bit of a walk to the river area but we didn’t mind. We enjoyed our stay

Service was great! But walls are thin and doors are loud. We heard people around us. Bed and pillows were poor. It’s in a great area! Ease of walking was great. Just a little loud and beds were not great.

This was BY FAR the coolest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff was EXCELLENT. The location is a block from the main tourist area. The amenities were OUTSTANDING. And the rooftop bar was the best way to end a long day of being a tourist. I would highly recommend this hotel and, hopefully, would book a room there again. Gosh, what a great place!

Single was not in the hallway, but in the stairwell and did not get very good wifi. I had to bring my laptop up next to the door to get an ok signal, but it still kept disconnecting. While it was amusingly decorated hotel overall, it feels like a dated, budget-level hotel.

Safe, comfortable stay in central Porto!

The good: super centrally located, friendly receptionist, clean family room with comfy beds, great shower, and reliable WiFi. The (not so) bad: Average (free but limited) breakfast menu, paid parking (not a surprise but 15e/day is a little on the higher side), no on-site restaurant (but plenty around the hotel), and a closed terrace bar. The ugly? Nada..... All in all, a safe, friendly stay without luxuries in a central location.

Quirky hotel

A hotel is in a great location. The staff were extremely helpful. The bedroom was in need of an update and the continental breakfast was adequate. Overall very good value for money. There was a lot of building work going on but as we were out most of the day, it didn’t really affect us. We found all the memorabilia quite fascinating.

Bumper experience!

Hotel is in a good location. The walk down to the riverside is a little hilly. Service and checking really good. We arrived early and they looked after our bags and when we came back to check in the bags were already in our room. The theme of the hotel is interesting and a little unusual. The rooms are a little tired. Breakfast was good although space can become a problem if it rains and you cant use the outside terrace. Some construction work going on next door.
