Small room, bathroom, for 1 or 2 people enough. Great location, in a historic area, very close to train station, old city and new!

Excellent Location and Warm Welcome
I had a wonderful stay! I was greeted warmly with port and a pastry and provided with information about what too see and do around town. Everyone was so lovely and nice and the accommodations were exactly what I was looking for! Very charming place!
2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a very comfortable stay. The historical house is very well kept and our room was clean. It is well located near the Cathedral and within walking distance of the waterfront. Marta, the host and our staff contact there, was most helpful, patient, gracious, and welcoming. She contacted us ahead of time more than once and sent us clear directions to the house from the train station via local train. We had an unexpected medical situation arise while there and she both advised us and made several calls on our behalf. The care and attention the staff gives their guests is rare. Highly recommended!

Wonderful
A lovely place to stay in Porto. So convenient for the Cathedral and the river. Marta could not have been more helpful; booking parking in advance, offering invaluable advice on restaurants, sightseeing, transport etc. She helped us with luggage (we had a lot, as we are on the road for a month) and with laundry too. She even went to the trouble of researching our onward travel on our behalf.I cannot recommend this place more highly.

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent central location in city centre approx 5 mins from nearest metro stop. Clean and modern. Our room was small but had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Welcome from Marta was above and beyond expectations. Not only did she introduce us to the guesthouse but supplied us with a drink of port and pastel da nata when we arrived ! she gave us an intro to the city highlights , supplied us with a map and even booked boat trip, tuk tuk ride and port cellar tour for us . She answered our questions during our stay in a friendly and efficient way. She is a great asset to her employer and the questhouse. Overall we could not have wanted more from our stay at this guesthouse and would fully recommend it for a short city break to Porto.

personal attention, made me feel at home, modern though the bathroom is small (on fairness the room that I rented stated the bathroom was small). I really enjoyed the room, the staff, the location, everything was great. Just ensure you have the right map on how to reach the hotel prior to arrive (google maps dont help :) because do not show the irregularities of the terrain, nest way to get there is through the large avenue in front of the train station. Highly recommend the place if you are traveling light (as most boutique places, there is no lift).
