The location of this accommodation is undoubtedly its best feature. However, my experience with the room setup was somewhat unusual. I stayed on the 3rd floor in an apartment that included a bedroom and a separate bathroom. To access the bathroom, I had to walk along a corridor, which was shared with two other rooms that were locked and inaccessible. This arrangement felt a bit strange and uncomfortable, as I could lock the main apartment door but not the bedroom door where I was sleeping. The presence of the other locked rooms added to the unease.
In terms of heating, the situation was less than ideal. The bedroom relied entirely on an air conditioner for heating, which had to be kept on almost constantly. The bathroom, on the other hand, had only a small heater, which was insufficient to warm the space—it was perpetually cold, making it quite uncomfortable.
Another downside to my stay was the lack of communication from the host. Despite multiple attempts to reach out through Booking and WhatsApp, I never received a response. This lack of responsiveness felt a bit...
Read moreNice and large rooms that have a decent city view. The room we had on the 3rd floor had a small standing space balcony with double doors that helped tremendously block out street sounds. The building however does not have an elevator. Daily housekeeping is extra money. Also, they asked for a refundable €50 room security deposit plus €8 tax in cash. The place is walking distance all the tourist sites and plenty of eating options. Also very close are the metro stations that can take you further into Porto or Gaia to visit the wine tasting places across the river. There was also a self-service laundromat 5 minutes away...
Read moreSiamo stati qui tre notti a dicembre, stanza molto grande in una ottima posizione!
La stanza non è altro che un appartamento con la porta della cucina/soggiorno chiusa, quindi si compone di un lungo stretto corridoio che collega l'ingresso con la camera da letto, cucina(chiusa per noi) e il bagno in fondo. La camera da letto è molto grande con anche un tavolino con due sedie utile per lo smartworking. Molto comodo l'ingresso per lasciare le giacche e le scarpe. Il bagno finestrato è dotato di vasca e di tutto il necessario, peccato che si trova in fondo al corridoio, ed essendo il riscaldamento del corridoio e del bagno insufficiente, era davvero un impresa andare in bagno la sera e la mattina senza ghiacciarsi. La stufetta elettrica del bagno scalda davvero troppo poco. Il riscaldamento della stanza da letto invece grazie al climatizzatore è adeguato. Le scale all'ingresso del complesso sono molto belle ed eleganti peccato per l'assenza dell'ascensore. La posizione è molto buona, a due passi dalle maggiori attrazioni di porto e vicino a molti bar e ristoranti.
Simon: Molto consigliato specialmente grazie alla sua vicinanza con le maggiori attrazioni di porto. Sara: mi sono trovata molto bene, mi raccomando il proprietario non parla inglese, quindi le info iniziali vengono dette...
