Porto Alegria Garden

Location and host

Simple breakfast. Noise from the street

Very nice place to stay! It‘s an apartment rather than a hotel. But very beautiful, clean and the location is good. You can walk into the city or quickly take an UBER. The host is super nice and made our (spontaneous) check-in easy!

The garden is not so cosy, so we did not really hang out there. You‘ll take ~15-20 min to the inner city on foot, so it’s not directly around the corner.

A very cute, authentic building with a lot of charm! The rooms and vibe were really cute and the garden was beautiful.

It is a bit far of a walk to get to everything - I think the price is a little cheaper than places I saw closer to reflect the difference. But it’s definitely a bit of an uphill trek back, especially after dinner. Not a huge deal but be aware!

Very nicely located in Porto, just a 10 to 15-min walk from central locations. Ideal for a short-term holiday when the main goal is to stroll around Porto and discover its beauties. The garden was great for chilling in the afternoon before going out and taking breakfast before a busy day out! The hostess was very helpful during the check-in process and provided us with many interesting suggestions for dining. She even allowed us a late check-out, since there were no other guests that same day, and that was highly appreciated by all of us.

A bit difficult to climb the ladder to the patio (where the two single beds are located), especially with luggage - moreover, the patio ceiling is low, so we had to be careful :) there is no indoors living room area, but the garden outside really compensates for that (as long as the weather is good).

Exceeded our expectations. Pictures didn't do it justice and how great it was. Magdalena was also super friendly and helpful.

The noise, we were surprised by how much we heard. Other guests were stomping around at midnight or super early and we heard it as if it was right next to us. We will be back though

nice old city house

No baggage room 👎 very small rooms no elevator

We stayed in a family room, which was quite spacious. We had direct access to the garden which was a nice bonus. The room was clean and tidy. The area is fairly central and you can easily reach some of the main attractions by foot. Madalena, our host, was very friendly and attentive. She was also very accommodating of our late check-out request.

The place was very clean and the room was cleaned every day. Our door was broken, so the owner upgraded our room, which we appeeciate.
