"We were super impressed with this hotel as a base for our Porto trip. The studio that we stayed in was spacious and really well appointed with calm and modern decor. We had a large balcony which overlooked the terrace which we really appreciated. The staff were wonderful; always ready with a smile and a pot of steamed milk for our morning coffee. The neighborhood is not touristy at all which comes with its benefits although it isn’t the most picturesque. We didn’t mind this at all and enjoyed our morning stroll to local bakeries (special mention to Brites for amazing bread and pastries!). It’s a 15 minute walk down to Trinidade metro station which links to the airport but only 4-5 minutes to Marques metro station for more local stops. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Obrigada"
