City center is at a 10 minute walk. Our room was clean and cleaned on both days. Check in is at 13:00. Very happy with my... More

Stayed three nights in early May, don't think you could find better value anywhere. The rooms are nice and clean and comfortable. It is a little outside the centre of Porto but what do you expect for the money?! Right next the Campo 24 Agusto metro station and only a short 20 downhill walk from the river or the old... More

We stayed for one night in the beginning of december. The owner did not speak english, but that was not a problem. She was nice and helpful anyway. The room did not have a window, but overall it was quiet and nice. There was hot water and a good shower. During the night, the room got really cold and the... More

Thank you for the comment. In fact the bedroom you choose is one of the budget type (less 5 euros per night than a standard bedroom and of course a little smaller and with one window to a corridor).´ To solve the temperature problem, the room as air conditioning. If you want to go to the railroad station you can... More

We stayed for one night in this 'hostel'. We had our own room and our own bathroom and tv. Not sure why others call it a hostel, because I didn't see any dormitory-like rooms, or shared bathrooms. The bed was nice, the bathroom as well. Also the air-conditioning system worked perfectly. The only thing is that the women at the... More

We booked a room for two different periods, and the experience was contradictory. The first night we were not able to stay at the residencial, because at our arrival the owner told us that the room was already booked. The owner told us that we were late (but it was only 19:00, and there was no check-in limit) and that... More

This situation was due to the fact that our presence in booking.com was managed by an intermediary company that made ​​some mistakes and did not send us the reservations on time. We are very sorry for the situation, so we ended the work with this company and now we manage our presence in all booking websites independently. More
