Staying here was amazing! It was in the perfect location downtown. The manager was absolutely amazing and really worked with our schedule. We felt like locals coming in and out of the apartment. It is really close to the streets with bars and clubs and it is a nice walking distance to the river.

Superlocatie! Knus en erg schoon. Persoonlijk vond ik het matras en kussen te hard. Uiteindelijk sierkussen gebruikt om te slapen :-). wat ik mis: een droogrek om handdoeken op te hangen, afdruip-rekje of theedoek om afwas te drogen. Erg krakende vloer boven ons en buren die met deuren gooien. Jammer dat de tv niet bij het bed hing, maar niet erg belangrijk. Verder alles perfect! We hebben genoten :-D

Estancia buena

Pasamos dos noches en este apartamento,la primera impresión no fue buena ya que al poco de llegar empezó a oler a huevo podrido. El propietario vino enseguida para solucionarlos el problema y como éramos 4 a dos de nosotros nos cambio de habitación a otra que tenían abajo. Está bien equipado y es bonito,echamos en falta cosas como colgadores para toallas ya que son muy largas. También agradecer al propietario que nos trajo servilletas..

Exceptional Service

The hotel staff service was exceptional. Liu was incredibly accommodating and helpful. I’ve never had hotel staff work so hard to ensure you not only have a good experience at the hotel but also in the city. I couldn’t ask for better service.

Accueil excellent, l’hôte a répondu à toute nos questions très rapidement avant notre arrivée, nous a reçu avec le sourire, nous a donné un plan de la ville et expliqué toute les activités au alentour et nous a réservé le taxi pour le départ. L emplacement est idéal, dans le quartier historique de porto, tout est à 10 min à pied environ. L appartement est assez grand, très propre, avec du charme.
