Mercados do Poetas - Tourism Apartments — Hotel in Porto

We booked an apartment in the Mercado dos Poetas though one of the common websites. We only selected it based on criteria we submitted, no so much about anything else.||||But we loved it here. My daughter had the mezzanine, and she was in heaven. It is small and low, so only suited for small children, but it worked for us.||||The apartment has a good size, but it lost a lot of free space due to 2 large pillars in the middle of the room. The apartment is very well maintained and super clean as is the staircase towards the front door.||It had everything we needed and a very nice and good shower.||||The location of the apartments is excellent. Market Bolhao is just down the block and the subway station is close by. ||||If you are travelling from the airport, don't bother taking a cab, you can take the subway and the station is only 300 m away from the apartment, easy to find. It will be the first major saving you made.||||The area is upcoming, but still has plenty of authentic shops left with also new hip trendy restaurants. It is not down town, close to the boulevard and the major touristic attractions, but everything is within walking distance (10-15 min). ||Do you really want to be where all the noise is?||||The apartments made a deal with a café 3 houses down the road to serve you breakfast. It is very authentic and we noticed that many of the Portuguese come here everyday. The place is definitely busier then the other cafe's on the street.||||Breakfast is excellent, coffee needs improvement, and they have plenty of snacks, sandwiches and cakes to take with you for your day in Porto.||||We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. It is not the cheapest place, but for what you get, it is very well and...

We stayed in this apartment for 3 nights, very central, close to everything, all transport links, restaurants, shopping etc. The girl at reception was very helpful, you get a voucher for breakfast which you take in the cafe a few doors down, you can take the breakfast from 7.30 am to 6 pm, which is handy and plentiful. The apartment had a mezzanine which was good for our kids, very spacious, 2 double mattresses, but the height is not that good, as you will bash your head!!!! There is also a double bedroom under the mezzanine, a living area with a kitchen, dishwasher etc, although we did not cook as there are a lot of food courts and everything is very reasonable.||||If you have poor mobility do not even think about this place as there are a lot of stairs to climb and there is no lift, so carrying suitcases is not ideal and hard work. Having said this, the apartment was very comfortable and quiet and...

This apartment is modern, super clean and just a happy place to relax in Porto. We were delighted at the accommodations and the ammenities included - washer/dryer, full kitchen and supplies, furnishings. Breakfast was included at this delicious bakery 2 doors away. The bakery spoiled us by generously supplying us with a huge breakfast sandwich, sweet baked goods, cafe con leche and bottled juice.||||The only draw back in our experience is the flight of stairs we had to climb with our heavy luggage. Our receptionist was very helpful in assisting us with our luggage though. Also the main couch/sofa was a bit stained and could have used some new coverings or a new sofa altogether. ||||We would stay at this place all over again. It is centrally located and near the shops, restaurants and...
