Beautiful little apartment with comfy bed! Such sweet extras left by the owner: a cute little bottle of port to toast, water, coffee, a nap with recommendations. Truly kind attention to detail and very accommodating to early or late coming and going with a secure space for luggage offered. Thank you!

Well located, spacious apartment in Porto

Well located, spacious apartment that exceeded my expectations! The place is enormous and the bed was so comfortable with a nice firm mattress. There was no noise or disturbance and the building has a lift to assist with bringing luggage upstairs. The check in process was totally smooth and I couldn't fault this place! Would highly recommend.

Great place

A wonderfully unique place. The apartment had everything I needed for convenience, the hotel is located on a beautiful square from which there is a street with many restaurants and boutiques and about a 15-minute walk you enter directly into the city center. I used Uber that cost almost nothing to get to train station.

Great clean place!!

It was so lovely, super clean and accomadating. They left us coffee pods and water everyday. The room is fully equipped with everything you could think of. The best thing was really the cleanliness. Close walk to the city center and the area has supermarkets/restaurants open and felt safe. Would absolutely recommend!!

Excellent property. The owner made special arrangements for us to be met and welcomed at the property outside of their check in hours. She also let us store our luggage after checking out. The area is very interesting with lots of excellent dining options. We particularly enjoyed Adega Do Carregal.

The best experience. The place was clean, modern, and walking distance from all the fun activities. We asked where we could have our laundry done and they said they could do it for us. Our laundry came back all cleaned and folded pro bono. That was incredible service that we didn’t expect. We have the cleaners a good tip. We highly recommend it.

Amazing guest house.

Amazing and very unique guest house. It is an old building that makes sure to retain all its charm. It is as if you step back in time to the 70s, but in a good way. The room/apartment is very spacious. There are many old artifacts in place including vinyl to listen to some Abba songs. The host is also very friendly and welcoming. When we arrived, she sent us detailed list of all the places we should visit and places we should dine at. Nice to get local perspective. Location is only about 500 meters away from downtown core, where all the nightlife is happening.

This was one of the coolest little hotels we’ve ever stayed in, very unusual interior with lovely artsy details. It was nice to find a kettle, microwave, coffee machine and fridge, plus full set of crockery in the room in case we needed anything but we didn’t need much as there was a lovely coffee shop next door and so many other great places for all meals, including some lovely breakfast/brunch places within 10-15 minutes walk. It’s a great, central location, with a nice park opposite. Ines was amazing. So helpful with any requests and she dealt efficiently with our out of hours arrival, making sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this as a wonderful place to stay to enjoy the fantastic city of Porto.

Absolutely brilliant. The accommodation was very spacious, very tastefully decorated, lots of facilities and everything was spotless and fresh. We even had two toilets. The bed was big, crispy clean and so comfortable. Lots of lovely thoughtful personal touches. Ines was really helpful and very welcoming. We could even get into our room 3 hours earlier, which was so helpful. She also arranged for our taxi to the airport. Ines own recommendations out together in a map were great. We highly recommend this place. The beautiful park opposite was just getting finished and once done will make this hotel even more desirable. If we come back to Porto we know the best place to stay 😊
