Nice apartments, great location.
The layout of this "hotel" is a bit strange, as the reception and the dining/breakfast room are in one building and the apartments (because it's apartments and not just single rooms) are in the building next door. The location is very good, a stone's throw from Clerigos and right beside a large selection of bars and restaurants. Well worth a look if you are looking for a nice base to discover Porto from. Is not the most "central" from a tourist point of view, but are a lot of things around that you might not see otherwise.

Good for location, close to everything you’d want to see in porto. We liked the apartment it could use some upgrades with the air conditioning but other than that it was great!
