“This older, well-maintained establishment provides clean and suitably sized rooms, placing guests within a short walk of both the Casa da Música and convenient transport links. While USB ports might be absent, a nearby pastry shop and friendly staff more than compensate. It's a simple but solid base for exploring Porto.”

The location was convenient to my needs. I found a food street and a mall located behind the building. I found this convenient after a long day.

The sheets had stains. The pillows felt lumpy and the beds were not comfortable. The room felt outdated and in serious need of a refresh.
