Overall good but broken doors

Hotel was in a good location and nice for what we wanted. My only issue is the double door to the small balcony was swollen and didn't close. We closed the shutters and doors best possible but unfortunately could hear the traffic from the busy street all night.

Rude receptionist (Lady)

I have arrived 2 hours before the check in time, I approach very friendly to the receptionist and asked if I could check in earlier because my flight was on that time and there is no where else for me to go, that I could even pay a bit extra if necessary. Her answer”do you want me to get in to the room and wake people up after that smash them out for you to have a room on this time??!!, have you seen anywhere else check in being before 3pm?!! “ To be honest, I felt so bad that I couldn’t even talk!! I just answered “THANK YOU” Apart of her, all went good after checked in. But I won’t go back again to this Hostel.

Got to the reception and was meet by a women who didn’t speak very good English,Filled out all the forms and was told I needed to pay €6 euro bedroom fee..No problem went to pay with my card but they only took cash..No problem I will get to the cash machine and draw it out for you..All day and the following day i was meet with “You owe me €6 euro today” She was very rude and hounded me for this €6 even though I paid when booking £10 for another “tax”..The hotel it self stunk from every corner of cigarette smoke constantly! It was disgusting to the point I had to leave my window open all day and night to try and air the smell out! Didn’t work bearing in mind we was on a busy road so the noise was constant! The bathroom is so small you can’t move when showering if you can shower that is! The bed the sheets where damp and not dry! Your key you have to leave behind the reception if you leave so any one can have a nosey in your room! All in all a really bad experience and would never book here again.

RUN AS FAR AS YOU CAN FROM THIS PLACE!!! So we’re a family of 4. We booked accommodation for a family room for €485 for 9 nights and upon arriving she demanded that we pay €7000 for two extra people! We said we’re happy to pay €15.85 per person per night (as what was stated on their website) but she continued to scream at us in Portuguese and tried haggling it down to €3600! She laughed in our face when we said can we get our money back so we thought since we’ve already paid we might as well have our mum and brother stay and my partner and I find another hotel around the corner. Every time you leave your hotel room you have to hand her the keys and buzz to come back in. On the first night she demanded my mum pay €28 to get her key back! I cannot believe how this place is still allowed to be running. Seriously one the the worse humans you can ever encounter. Please do not stay here unless you are happy to get ripped off and abused.

A great location for visiting the walkable city of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia just over the river. It's clean and the reception is friendly. It's not luxurious but (a) you knew that when you saw the price and (b) you're going out first thing in the morning and coming back last thing at night, you came here to see Portugal, no the inside of a room. Only thing I would say to Expedia is, we got the non-smoking room we asked for but you describe the property as smoke free, and I am not convinced it is.

Good little base for exploring porto

I know for some people having to leave your key at reception is jarring and confusing but in practice it's not too inconvenient as the hardworking hostess is always at reception at all hours. The location is great for access to a direct metro to/from the airport, although it's not right in the centre of the action. I would recommend this hotel if you're happy to use the metro and/or walk into the centre

Esistono i citofoni e i sorrisi ai clienti.

Io direi a questa donna di mettere un citofono,non parlo di videocitofono "tecnologia troppo avanzata";non si può ogni volta che esci lasciare alla "reception"la chiave e poi quando torni,suonare ogni volta e aspettare anche 5 minuti,mai vista una cosa simile.La struttura è vicina al centro,alla metropolitana,ma la scocciatura che dimostra questa donna,la chiave lasviata ogni volta e il fetore che proviene dal bagno,rovinano l'aspetto positivo del loco.

Hier muss man seinen Schlüssel abgegeben und jedesmal wenn man ins hotel möchte, steht man auf der Straße und man muss klingeln. Der Höhepunkt war, als ich 1 Stunde in der Nacht (2-3 Uhr) auf der Straße verbringen musste, weil niemand auf mein Klingeln reagierte. Ich habe den Urlaub nach zwei Tagen abgebrochen und bin auf eigene Kosten nach Hause geflogen. Bisher keine Unterstützung durch Expedia! Das Hotel ist außerdem mehr als schmutzig und die Dame an der Rezeption ist nicht einsichtig und sehr unfreundlich! hier auf keinen Fall ein Zimmer buchen! Ich habe das Gefühl die wollen die Leute mit Absicht weg ekeln.

La llamamos "La pensión Loli", es una habitación pequeña, vieja y no muy limpia. El baño es súper pequeño, la ducha es bañera, tan pequeña que cuesta darte la vuelta sin peligro. No hay más que jabón de manos y lo justo para que no gastes, la basura es de tamaño baño, la "limpieza" de la habitación se realiza cada 2 días. Lo peor es que no te dan llaves, tienes que picar para poder entrar, no sólo en ocasiones tarda muchísimo en bajar, si no, que te pedirá explicaciones de todo haciendo bastante molesta la estacia ya que la mujer, no tiene nada de simpática. Las habitaciones están en un segundo piso sin ascensor, la ubicación es buena y cercana al metro aunque, no hay mucho comercio cerca.
