The hotel is nice enough and the staff was lovely. But it didn’t feel like a great value for the location. It’s basically in the parking lot of a giant shopping mall if that appeals to you. It does not appeal to me. You need to take a bus or drive to all the touristy bits in Porto.

The room was clean but had a good hearing. The breakfast was very good! The Lobby is nice and invites to linger. The place of the Hotel is not so good for visiting the Center of Gaia or Porto. You need a car or Uber
