Guest Reviews

• Jorge Esteves Teixeira (6/5): Praticamente só o local era bom - Os banheiros. A água cai toda no chão,bica da torneira mau projetada. Banheiro minúsculo. Local sem elevador, tem que subir com às malas três andares que parecem quatro
• Bhartie (7/5): Fijne locatie in Porto! - De locatie is heel praktisch, metrostation Bolhao is op loopafstand Er hing een geur in de badkamer, dat leek op stilstaand water.
• Francesca (6/5): Sufficiente nel complesso - La struttura in posizione ottimale per girare la città. Grande e spaziosa con 2 bagni e 3 camere da letto cucina e sala. Struttura un po’ da sistemare… finestre vecchie che lasciavano passare rumori notturni e freddo e caldo. La pulizia non accurata. E il check out troppo presto per poter permettere di fare colazione sistemare le valigie etc. E sopratuttto non è possibile dover pagare per poter lasciare i bagagli in un’altra struttura a 4 minuti a piedi.
• Bettina (4/5): - Die Räumlichkeiten an sich sind super. Auch die Lage an sich ist zwar laut über einer Bar aber trotzdem gut gelegen. Der Geruch im Hauseingang ist katastrophal, auch der Geruch in den Bädern ist bei geschlossener Tür richtig unangenehm. Im Erker bei der Waschmaschine ist schwarzer Schimmel.... Und ja es ist ein appartement mit Selbstverpflegung, finde es aber dennoch schade, dass es nicht mal Salz, Pfeffer und ein paar Basics gibt. Selbst das Spülmittel ist in eine mini Flasche umgefüllt und rationiert.
• Claudio (10/5): - En general impecable, la ubicación, el apartamento muy completo. Lo único a mencionar es que está en un tercer piso por escalera que con valijas es un poco incómodo.
• Sylvie (8/5): Très bien, mais manque de y - L’emplacement était idéal, la grandeur des pièces. La vaisselle et les ustensiles inclus dans la cuisine étaient très utiles. Nous étions 5 personnes entre 65 et 75 ans, l’appartement est situé au troisième étage sans ascenseur, monter les valises a représenté un défi. Nous aurions dû être informé. Aussi, odeurs d’égouts dans salles de bains. Pas assez de papier de toilette, pas de linge à vaisselle.
• Guillaume (8/5): - L'emplacement dans le centre ville, proche de tous les lieux d'attractions et de visites Insonorisation extérieure à rénover car rue pavée au bas de l'immeuble très bruyante
• Peter (8/5): Nice apartments in a great location - Great location. Paid luggage storage after check-out. Third floor without elevator. Water in washed plates. Unpleasant smell in the cupboard with dishes. There is no window or exhaust fan in the bathroom. When you check in, you need to go to a different address to pick up the keys.
• Enrico (10/5): - Posizione perfetta, bella zona, bella gente. Casa pulita, luminosa e accogliente. Ottimi i materassi, i cuscini e la cucina/soggiorno. Bagni con doccia spaziosa.
• Irina Birin (9/5): - Große Wohnung in zentrale Lage. Vielle Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Nähe. Alles super Kein Aufzug.für ältere Menschen erwas problematisch
• BERNARDINO (9/5): - Apartamento cómodo, limpio y muy bien situado. Es un tercer piso sin ascensor. un poco incómodo para gente con dificultades de movilidad. Pero ideal para gente joven
• Marisa (8/5): Apartamento espaçoso e muito bem localizado. - Localização Ser um 3• andar sem elevador.
• Eleuterio (5/5): - La ubicación Mucho ruido y la limpieza regular, la ducha el grefite del suelo negro,tenias que ducharte con chanclas y faltaba menaje en la cocina, no había ni una sartén y tampoco disponia de horno,el extractor no absorbia todo el humo por lo tanto el comedor se llenaba de humo, por lo demás bien
• Caroline (10/5): - J'ai apprécié la communication avec l'équipe avant notre arrivée. Le personnel est toujours disponible et agréable. L'appartement nickel et très bien situé. Il manquait juste un torchon dans la cuisine.
• Rúben (8/5): -
• Magali (9/5): Une localisation parfaite pour la visite de Porto - Emplacement au top dans Porto. Appartement confortable et spacieux, parfait pour un séjour entre amis ou en famille à la découverte de la ville Le robinet de la cuisine qui ne tient pas et la vmc des salles de bain qui ne fonctionnent pas correctement, beaucoup d'humidité et de remonté d'odeurs.
• edwin (7/5): - Locatie van het appartement was.top lekker aan de rand van het stadscentrum appartement zelf doet erg portugees aan Hygiëne en achterstallig onderhoud
• Ana Fe (9/5): - No informan que es un tercer piso sin ascensor
• Henri SEBBE (8/5): AVec le soleil, une ville fantastique à parcourir - La ville est très plaisante, malgré les quelques petites montées que nous avons découverts lors de nos petites promenades. La gentillesse des Portugais, et leur acceuil chaleureux. Vraiment une ville à découvrir (notamment les marchés couverts) Dans l'appartement, reflux d'odeur au niveau des salles de bains. Amélioration de la ventilation à prévoir
• Sophie (8/5): - La vaisselle était un peu sale et il n y en avait pas assez, la machine à café cassée. Le porte papier toilette était cassé dans une des salle de bain et il y avait bcp de mauvaise odeur provenant de la salle de bain. La localisation était super, dans le centre, beaucoup de restaurants autour et à 2pas du métro
• James (6/5): Spacious, great location but a bit noisy. - Great central location, close to the pedestrian shopping streets and the Bolhol market. Good size rooms and apartment. Good amenities with a washing machine and dishwasher. A few things. Unfortunately the cars on the cobbled street below were very noisy. Not super busy but cars constantly going past all night. Closed windows did little to reduce the noises. Mold on one of the shower heads and no ventilation in the bathrooms. Third story apartment but no lift.
• maria paula (8/5): Muito boa -
• Frédéric (7/5): - L'emplacement Les chambres sont bruyantes
• Luis (1/5): Horrível, péssima . - De nada, quando chegamos as casas de banho estavam com um odor muito desagradável a limpeza das mesmas estava muito deficiente, os lavatórios eram pequenos demais para a torneira ao abrir as mesmas o chão ficava todo alagado. De nada O alojamento era num terceiro andar não existe elevador, levar ar malas pela escada é muito difícil e além do mais não nos informaram da não existência do elevador e connosco ia uma pessoa com problemas de saude.
• Mery (9/5): - La ubicación excelente. La respuesta rápida a un pequeño problema con un lavabo. El cambio de toallas a mitad de semana. El sistema de recogida de llaves, si no llegas a la hora, es muy fácil. Buena comunicación y rápida respuesta con el anfitrión. Nada en especial. Todo estuvo bien. Sólo decir quela cafetera perdía mucha agua y convendría echar un vistazo para los siguientes inquilinos.
• Alberto (5/5): - la ubicación no tiene ventilación los baños y tiene muy malos olores, recomiendo que pongan unos extractores o un sistema de ventilación eficiente. Nos encontramos con basura de los anteriores huéspedes en el cubo
• Begoña (10/5): -
• Laia (10/5): - tot, estava mol be, et donaven estris per la cuina, per netejar els plats sabo etc. El pis molt maco i molt util en totes les parts. Pot ser que estigui en un tercer pis sense ascensor, pero per la resta genial.
• Mariaje1975 (5/5): - Las habitaciones amplias, los baños justos de tamaño, con cortina en la ducha, lavabo pequeño pero bien. Había aire acondicionado en todas las estancias. La cocina tenía todo lo necesario. Limpieza aceptable, excepto los balcones y ventanas. El portal olía muy mal. Y a la noche el olor en el apartamento era horrible. Era un calle céntrica y había ruidos, personas hablando, coches etc ...algo normal por ser céntrico, pero es que las ventanas eran muy viejas, de madera, en mal estado y no aislaban del ruido, ni del calor y en invierno imagino que debe ser muy frío. La limpieza del apartamento aceptable. Pero había un balcón que acumulaba suciedad. Aparte era un tercero sin ascensor que eso no lo dicen tampoco. Pero lo peor era el fuerte y mal olor que había. Tuvimos que poner toallas debajo de las puertas para que no entrara del portal, pero después se filtraba por algún otro sitio al apartamento. Entre las ventanas y el fuerte olor allí no volveré a hospedarme.
• Gil 8 (9/5): Muito muito bom !!!!!!!!!! - Apartamento amplo, bem localizado muito claro e ventilado, muito bem cuidado, e alguns petiscos de boas vindas !!!!!! A torneira da cozinha que era um pouco dificil de controlar o jato. ( Mas isso não comprometeu !!!!)
• Carla (9/5): Wonderful apartment, great location, good cardio exercise. - Apartment is lovely. Great beds and bathrooms, and at a great location. Our apartment didn’t have a hairdryer and one of the ACs was not working, and the team was very helpful and quickly solved the issues. It was mentioned in many reviews, so I can’t say say I was not aware of it, but the building we stayed in didn’t have an elevator, which made it challenging for our family, as we had 2 kids (2 and 5ys) and 2 seniors, and we were on the third floor.
• JACINTO (5/5): Boa estadia. - O melhor que tem este apartamento é a sua localização no centro da cidade. Não gostei da falta de limpeza da base e das paredes do chuveiro. para o preço que tem este apartamento, o chuveiro é simplesmente uma dececionante... Diria, mesmo repugnante! Um outro contratempo é a falta de elevador para carregar as malas até ao terceiro andar.
• Alessio (10/5): - Ottima posizione, stanze confortevoli e pulite. Buona organizzazione. Niente
• Chris (8/5): Very good - The location is very good, close to good restaurants and the metro The bathrooms have no ventilation, are smelly, and the showers were not clean, pieces of used soap lying on the floor
• Eb (10/5): An amazing time in a lovely apartmment with my besties!!! - The location was the best in the corner of Firmeza and Sta. Catarina. Despite being in an old building block, the apartment is very well renovated and has a comfortable vibe to it. Close to supermarkets and shops, and relatively easy to park around. That the instructions were somehow to the second floor (it also said 2 on the keyring) so I spent 30 minutes trying to open the wrong door which turned out to it be the third floor. No harm done but it was annoying and frustrating.
• Andrew (7/5): Lovely, well located and comfortable apoartemwnt. - Very well located appartment. Well equipped and comfortable The main downside was the noise. Being above a busy street it was noisy until midnight or later snd the rooms were poorly insulated against the noise.
• Peter (9/5): Nice property, agent less so - Liked location, disliked being threatened with €200 per hour charge if don't vacate apartment by 10:30am: unnecessarily officious. Disliked poor directions to apartment as the street door did not have number on it. Hiint: DOOR TO LEFT OF 'THE BARBER KING'
• Michaela (10/5): Perfect stay in the city center - Great spacious apartement close to the Bolhao market. Downstairs restaurant Elees with amazing food an drinks. We will definitely stay here when we come back to Porto.
• Jana (10/5): Would definitelly recommend - Beds were huge and very comfortable The agency that is managing the Appartment, their office is 2 min away from the Appartment and the staff are most helpful you can always visit in the office hours to get help or advice about anything… Appartment is on the 3rd floor with no lift but for abled bodies people , it wasn’t that bad…
• Philippa (6/5): Great location and size - The location and size of the property were breezy and perfect for a city break with friends Unfortunately there was a bad odour in the hall way which travelled through the building
• Jocelyn (4/5): Not pleasant - Bedrooms Lack of utilities. Had to complain as did other tenants on several occasions about the fouls emanating from downstairs this spoilt last three days of our stay. The entrance to building was never swept and looked dirty
• Keith (10/5): Great apartment - Fantastic apartment. 3 large double bedrooms with one en suite and a second bathroom.Plenty of towels. Large lounge and good kitchen equipment. Would stay here again if visiting Porto
• Sue (8/5): Great Location - Very roomy Nothing
• Pouneh (8/5): Very good -
• Nils (7/5): Good - Good location, spacious, bathroom to all rooms Worn Down. Not luxiorious as probably ten years ago
• Hannah (8/5): Hotter than anticipated but a good city for a short stay. - The pick up point was close to our apartment. The people were friendly & we got a map of Porto. It would have been helpful to be told we would have to collect the keys from another location before we had booked. We knew there were 2 apartments in the building but not entirely clear which one was ours. I'm also not happy that the cleaning fee was increased on the day we arrived.
• Greg (9/5): Good value for money and great location - Well located and spacious On the third floor so bags may be an issue given stairs only
• Gerard (7/5): Good - Would have been good to have a check out later than 10:30 This is too early
• Donna (7/5): Great location. 4 bedroom 4 en-suite value for money - Great location. Excellent value for money for 4 bedrooms and 4 en-suites. Response to each email sent during our stay was very good. Cleanliness of kitchen and lounge area lacking. Would suggest that a toaster be available. Dustbin bottom fell out due to rust in kitchen so needs to be replaced. Shower in one room needs to be mended
• Lynette (7/5): It was an enjoyable and comfortable stay in the heart of Porto. - We like the area and the location, very Center and near to Bolhão metro station which is easy access to the airport. There are shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and a shopping mall nearby. The apartment is very clean and rooms are in good size with comfortable beds. Kitchen is furnished and equipped with cooking utensils and basic kitchen needs. Dishwasher is a big bonus with dishwasher tablets available as well Kitchen work top needs replacing. The common corridor outside the apartment is hot and no air vent. Needs additional sofa for guest to relax as this apartment accommodates 6 people. No lift😌
• Daphne (5/5): Passable -
• Susie (8/5): Porto it has been a pleasure. - Roomy apartment. Liked that each room had its own ensuite. Bedroom were spacious Bedroom balconies over looked the city. Perfect location, close to shops, restaurants, town centre and good transport. Close to train station. Bathroom storage not well equiped. No caddy in shower. One hair between four bedrooms. No laundry facility but only given one towel per person for five days. Not elevator or means to get suitcases up to third fall. Kitchen needs an updated. Missing a few basics. No oven. No tea towels. No dishwasher tablets and very minimal dish wash liquid. Cuttery needs an update, no enough spoons for 6 people.
• Carol (8/5): Good apartment near to restaurants and the local underground - The property was a great size with each of the 4 double bedrooms having their own in suite shower. living area was also spacious. It needs a little TLC. A broken chair, towel rails in need of securing.
• Sachin (9/5): Excellent Apartment, conveniently located in heart of Porto.. -
• Silvia (9/5): Beautiful and comfortable! - The apartment is new and very nice. Big enough for 8 people, with a very spacious living room and kitchen. The position is very good as well, plus the host provided us a shuttle service from/to the airport at a reasonable price and allowed us to store our luggage in a deposit the day of our departure. In the early morning the host was unreachable, but nothing went wrong and we arranged for our check-out as soon as the reception opened.
• Michelle (8/5): Very good -
• Helen (9/5): great location and staff - great location, we were met on arrival and got some great recommendations from Marina. lovely and clean with everything you need for a stay in Porto can be loud from the street late at night which did wake us up at times
• Ingrid (7/5): excellent get away with friends - Any problems were dealt with very quickly . Staff very friendly. Great having 4 bathrooms. Great location. Could have done with an extra sofa.
• Ángel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Maciej (8/5): Funny tourist trip, family satisfied despite bad weather - good contact in the office, good practical recommendations. Apartment spacy and clean, the kitchen sufficiently equipped. Big living room nice for breakfasts. Super location. Small problems but irritating: water leakage in one of toilets, tiny but visible on the floor, sink in a kitchen partly blocked, dirty water draining very slowly, lock in the additional toilet broken
• Lesley (8/5): Very good -
• Tomcruz (8/5): Very good -
• Anunaya (6/5): Great location. Great house. Problem with maintenance and amenities - It’s a spacious apartment and the location is absolutely great. 1) The bathroom exhausts were not working and hence the bathrooms were smelly. 2) I understand that there is a city tax but it should be mentioned in property description. 3) The water in taps was yellow. 4) The water boiler and coffee machine had scaling and hence we couldn’t use it.
• Janet (8/5): Very good -
• James (9/5): great apartment for groups - 4 bedrooms all with ensuite shower rooms and toilets were a big plus for our group. nothing
• Anonymous (5/5): Passable - location, spacious bathrooms were mouldy and smelly. kitchen was old and the countertops looked like they were wearing off. the apartment smelled like rotten eggs.
• Ball (8/5): Very good -
• Derek (8/5): Very good - Lovely big apartment for 5 adults. Good location. No welcome pack - tea,coffee,milk etc which would have been appreciated on arrival after a late evening flight.
