Guest Reviews
- Sten Halvor (6/5): Udemærket sted, man får hvad man betaler for - Hotellet er OK. Man får, hvad man betaler for. Fint sted at sove, men der er ikke plads til ophold eller lignende på hotellet.
Det ligger lidt langt væk fra Porto centrum. Generelt er vi fint tilfredse med stedet, som sovested, men det er heller ikke mere. En venlig vært, der ikke snakker engelsk, men hans søn kunne heldigvis engelsk og hjalp med at tjekke ind.
- Dayana Carolina Villegas (10/5): - La habitación para dos estaba muy bien, muy limpio y con mucha luz. El bus tanto para ir como para volver del centro estaba a la vuelta de la esquina
- MARCELA (8/5): - Buena ubicacion, excelente anfitrionía
- Philippe (4/5): - Oblige d insister la chambre n etait plus disponible ol a fallu que j onsite pour la récupérer
- Axel (6/5): - José est très accueillant et très gentil, mais l’état de l’hôtel est vraiment bof
- Alexander (10/5): - The residency was in a very practical location and the staff were very kind and welcoming. Me and my fiancée had a great time.
- Niklas (10/5): Jäätävän hyvä! - Aivan loistava paikka. Franco vanha pesunkestävä nazi pitää eläkepäivinä majataloa pystyssä.
Pulputtaa ja pälpättää minkä kerkee isäntä, mitään ei ymmärretty kun ei porttoa puhu mutta hauskaa oli
- Verified traveler (2/5): - This has to be the worst hotel I've stayed in Europe. I arrived past 9 in the evening ring the bell and I had to wait outside in the rain and cold for a good 10-15 minutes. I do not speak Portuguese or Spanish and the owners speak very little English - so communication throughout my stay was terrible. There is a strong smell of cat urine or poo in the common area and even my room. My room was not cleaned on my second day, no WIFI and there was a leak at the top of the shower which I reported - they only said it was a holiday and basically did nothing. The single room was too small - I am an average size asian guy and I had to squeeze myself in the toilet and shower. The room gets really really cold as well. I am trying to think of something good about this place but I can't think of anything.
- Cesar Emmanuel (8/5): - Es un alojamiento local, un hotel familiar, hay que ser paciente sy comunicarse antes para afinar detalles , personas ,muy amables y agradables . vale la pena darse la oportunidad de apoyar un negocio local.
- Tatiana (8/5): - The owners were super nice... a very elderly couple and their son. My room was basic but clean. They turned it over every day. The only thing was the common area had a strong smell from a cat, I think.
- Ayesha (10/5): Great location. - Excellent. Very clean and nice staff. Good location.
Paul helped me check in he was very friendly.
Room was nice clean and near to bus.
- Kylee (10/5): - Beautiful place
- Micaela (10/5): Estadia de Descanso - A estadia correu lindamente, o senhor Paulo foi muito simpático e muito atencioso connosco!
O quarto não foi bem o que estávamos à espera mas era confortável na mesma, e pudemos deixar os nossos pertences em segurança e ter uma boa noite de sono e descanso!
Recomendo! :)
- MAYELIN (10/5): - Excelente servicio, me sentí muy arropada y descansé muy bien. Quedé enamorada de Oporto
- Lucia (10/5): - Esta propriedade é simples mas bem conservada. Perto de mercado Não é muito no centro mas você pode caminhar e chegar nos principais pontos turísticos ou pegar o ônibus que passam perto. Para o meu objetivo oeste alojamento me atendeu muito bem
- Ming Kin (10/5): High value accommodation - The host are helpful and friendly. It is easy to find the supermarket and but the stuff.
- Elodie (10/5): L'odeur - Tres propre ,mais il y a quand une odeur dans les parties communes entrée et etages ou sa sent (urines)c'est tres désagréables, dans les chambres heureusement non enfin dans la miennes les autres je sais pas ....
- Wolfgang (8/5): Traditionelle Pension in Porto - Die Rezeption ist erst ab 15:00 besetzt. Einchecken ist vorher nicht möglich. Sehr schönes traditionelles portugiesisches Haus in ruhiger Wohngegend. Supermarkt und preiswertes Café für Frühstück sind in der Nähe. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich. Alles sehr sauber und sicher, Zimmer wird täglich gereinigt. Vom Flughafen kann man mit der Metro ohne umsteigen bis zur Station Lapa fahren und von dort laufen, ca. 15 Minuten. Stadtzentrum ist fußläufig zu erreichen ca. 30 Minuten.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Não foi dos melhores. Chegamos tarde e fomos atendidos. Mas um lugar para urgência de uma noite.
- Charles (8/5): Good value - Very friendly service. Room was small but clean, good bed and hot shower. In a quiet area about a half hour walk from the historic centre. Good restaurants, cafés and laundromats nearby. Basic but price is very good compared to downtown.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - On s'y sens bien, l'établissement est bien décoré et les chambres sont calme. Le gérant est vraiment accueillant et bienveillant!
Seuls bémols, l'éclairage dans la chambre et la salle de bain était un peu faible à notre goût, et la porte vitré de la baignoire n'est pas vraiment hermétique. Et enfin 2 étages sans ascenseur ce n'est pas evident avec les bagages.
Nous recommondons cependant.
- Maria Candelaria (8/5): - El lugar es agradable por la atención de sus sueños que están vertientes de cualquier detalle.
Está cerca del centro tomando el bus 600 cuya parada está como a doscientos metros del hotel.
- MILENKO (8/5): Vale Formoso - Clean room, but very small bathroom. Sr Jose and other staff are really helpful. Neighborhood is nice and safe.
- Hugo (4/5): Okej - Såg inte ut som på bilderna
- driss (10/5): - Parfait
- Alain (6/5): - Style pension de famille excentré bruyante avec des propriétaires aimables mais vieillissant et ayant du mal à se faire comprendre en français ou anglais
- Susana (10/5): Ambiente familiar - Simpatia do Sr José, muito limpo e sossegado.
- Luiz Antonio Ferreira (10/5): Estadia agradável. - Proprietários gentis e atenciosos.
Higiene e conforto excelentes.
Ambiente familiar e calmo.
Próximo a restaurantes e panificadoras
- Jose (10/5): - Muy buena y te ayuda mucho el señor Jose y su hijo muy buenas personas
- Nicholas (8/5): - Nice friendly place. Easy to walk to and from town too
- Lucas (6/5): Local barato, mas não recomendo. - Estadia razoável. Local antigo, sem elevador. Ninguém oferece ajuda pra levar as malas nas escadas. Horários enjoados de entrada e saída, além do que é uma casa de idosos. Não voltaria, mas foi uma estadia agradável.
- Fernando (10/5): Very much good - The owner is very much nice. The hotel has a good price and an excellent service.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Não fiquei no endereço em que informam, cheguei cansada de viagem com malas e tive que andar até lá. O quarto é bem limpo mas muito abafado por ser num piso abaixo e o acesso das escadas é horrível. A unica vantagem foi o preço e o fato de ter uma confeitaria maravilhosa bem em frente ao predio.
- marc (8/5): - hotel calme et proche ducentre ville
- Flavia Sacic de Brito (10/5): - Ótimo custo beneficio.
Fomos muito bem recebidos pelo Sr. Zé (proprietário), uma figura encantadora. Acomodação agradável, superando as expectativas. Super recomendo!!!
- Roca (2/5): - Habitación en un sótano con mini ventana en lo alto (mejor no abrir) que daba a los aires acondicionados (ruido...), habitación llena de polillas y muchísima humedad.
- Pietro (6/5): Non proprio l'ideale. - Posizione diversa da quella dove abbiamo effettuato il chek in, le camere erano pulite e con tutti i confort solo che erano al di sotto del livello della strada, una chicca una delle due camere aveva l'entrata nel bagno (cioè entravi nel bagno e da li c'era l'entrata nella camera)
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Sijainti erittäin huono, ei mitään lähellä ja metro kaukana.
- anna (2/5): Assurdo - Appena arrivati abbiamo trovato una struttura fatiscente,dopo il ceck in il proprietario ci ha spostate in una struttura a circa 100 metri e ci hanno messe in un sottoscala talmente umido che le lenzuola erano bagnate! Sconsigliato
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Il proprietario era molto simpatico e accogliente. Albergo vecchio ma in stile.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Location is good, but the room was in a different building than the registration. It was wortn out and tired.
- Franck (10/5): Bon établissement - Bon accueil de la part de José et de son fils ils renseignent très bien quand on leur pose des questions en faisant l’effort de parler français et Jose donne de bonnes adresses pour manger son hôtel est à 25 mn du centre à pied et c’est calme la nuit
- jean-jacques (10/5): - Très bon séjour, très bon accueil, très sympathique.
- Iben (8/5): - Fint og rent, men plastik-lagen under lagnet er ikke rart. Det er varmt og man sveder...
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excelente estadia - Lugar excelente com ótimo atendimento único ponto que pode ser melhorado é a questão da internet, mas de resto é um excelente lugar.
- Marco (2/5): Péssimo - Certamente está entre os piores hotéis que há estive
Velho, mal cuidado, mal administrado
Banheiro fétido
Quarto muito pequeno e cheirando a mofo
Dos lances de escada e sem ninguém para ajudar com as malas, vôo o já passamos dos 60 anos, não for nada agradável carregar malas e mochilas dos andares acima
Os donos até tentam ser simpáticos, mas estão completamente defasados no tempo
Não tem café, lobby bem estacionamento
Aliás acho um absurdo colocar no aplicativo que tem estacionando quando não tem
Sinceramente, devia sair da lista do Hotéis.com
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nettes altes und Familiäres kleines Hotel etwas außerhalb vom Porto Stadtkern. Bett, Fernsehen, WiFi, Eigenes Bad, alles da. In der Beschreibung stand zwar was von Frühstück, aber wir haben am ersten Abend nur eine Visitenkarte von einem Frühstücksrestaurant bekommen, von daher glaube ich es gab keins. Wir wollten eigentlich 10 Tage bleiben, sind aber nach 4 Nächten weitergereist um mehr vom Urlaub zu haben. Für die Zeit war es okay.
- marie-claude (8/5): Séjour à PORTO - Très bon accueil, la propreté, le confort.
un plus serait la possibilité d'imprimer les billets d'embarquement maintenant avec les prestations informatisées.
- Isabella (10/5): Residencial Vale Formoso - For the price we paid we are really satisfied. The room was cleaned, we had a comfortable bed and a big plus for the air condition. The owners of the residence was a really sweet and friendly family, they made the stay even better.
- Beatriz (10/5): Recomendo - Ótima localização, boas instalações, proprietários atenciosos, recomendo.
- Mike (6/5): - La stanza era seminterrata bagno piccolo. Non è vicinissimo al centro ma nel complesso nelle vicinanze c'è tutto.Porto città fantastica!
- SONIA (8/5): Box do banheito - O box do banheiro é muito pequeno, não
Dá para se virar dentro dele sem bater na torneira - aí cai água muito quente nas costas. E o banheiro tem um bom tamanho, dava para o box se maior. O quarto em que fiquei ficava numa espécie de porão, uma escadinha difícil para chegar. Mas o quarto era limpo, Tv de bom tamanho, canais a cabo.
- Márcia Cristina (4/5): - Tivemos um problema com algum tipo de pulga ou percevejos
- Fernando (8/5): Acogedor - Económico por la zona si es que te gusta andar para ir al centro. Los dueños muy acogedores y te ayudan y dan mucha información de la ciudad
- serge (6/5): Pas pour les gens outre mer ! - Lorseque ont arrivé d outre mer et ont nous dit de revenir de revenir après 16 heurs ! Très frustrant en plus pour remplir les documents ça prend une heurs du à l âge avancé du personnel la ces beaucoup après 23 heurs debout !!!!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff were very helpful and friendly. It was a little noisy because all of the floors are wood/tile so you can hear everyone entering and leaving the building, though the rooms are fairly quiet otherwise.
- Silvana (8/5): Voltarei e recomendo. - Fomos recepcionados e tratados de forma muito calorosa durante toda a estadia. O Residencial faz se sentir em casa.
- Sergio (8/5): Bom para pernoite... - Apenas uma noite, mas, Sr. José (receção) muito prestativo...
- Alain (8/5): chambre en sous sol fenêtre difficilement accessib - Hotel sympa assez proche centre ville (a pieds ou en bus)
- Verified traveler (10/5): Una settimana indimenticabile - Questo hotel ci ha fatti sentire come a casa nostra. Il signor José e suo figlio gestiscono l'albergo da molti anni sempre con un sorriso genuino e un'attenzione premurosa verso gli ospiti. La stanza molto grande,ben arredata e molto pulita.
L'albergo al momento non fornisce la colazione, però i proprietari ci hanno indirizzati in un'ottima pasticceria a buon mercato fornita di ogni genere di leccornia portoghese,incluse le pastel de nata e il bolo brigaderio (assolutamente da provare ).
Se mai dovessimo tornare a Porto tra qualche anno siamo certi che il Residencial Vale Formoso sarà di nuovo la nostra casa.
- GERARD (6/5): Hotel accueillant - Très bon accueil.Chambre très propre, mais un peu sombre (située au sous-sol).Bus pour le centre ville ou la plage à 50 mètres.Bon restaurant pas loin.
- Adolfo (10/5): Residance Vale Formoso - Bonjour, le service est très professionnel. ils nous accompagne dans la découverte de porto et comment au fait pour arrive au Hotel. La propreté et le confort sont au RDV. Très Bon Qualité-prix.
Je recommande!!! ;)
Merci M.José.
- Eric (8/5): Rapport qualité prix OK. - J'ai choisi cet hôtel pour une raison budgétaire. On peut être plus exigeant, mais il faut choisir plus cher. Desservi par le bus, des commerces à proximité, globalement satisfait.
- Jair (10/5): Os donos são muito prestativo e amáveis adoramos t - Adorei tudo muito limpo,organização muito boa .senhor José, Paulo e sua mãe são mora 1.000
- ehgysdl (10/5): 주인이 친절한 숙소 - 주요관광지랑은 거리가 있지만 버스 한번타면 되는 거리이고 숙소는 굉장히 깨끗해요! 주인 할아버지가 정말 친절하고 정이 많으셔요. 다만 방이 좀 춥고 화장실에는 비누 외에는 세면용품이 없으니 참고하세요~
- Verified traveler (10/5): Alojada na filial do residencial - Tds os quesitos atendidos satisfatoriamente. Fui alojada na filial do residencial, ambiente simples mas confortável; localização excelente, transporte público na porta.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location and clean. Great place to explore Porto from. Would stay again.
- MARIA DULCE (8/5): BOM E BARATO - QUARTO SIMPÁTICO
Residencial simples, higiénica e confortável, sem elevador. Facilidade de transportes para o centro da cidade do Porto, sensivelmente 10 a 15 minutos de autocarro.
Proprietários simpáticos e acolhedores
- Matthew (10/5): - Fantastic little hotel a bit off the beaten path near the FC Porto training center in Porto. The owner is fun and especially friendly to Americans and the rooms are quite clean. A good buy at 40% more expensive.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Friendly staff but.. - Okay for one night, but I wouldnt stay any longer than that. The staff was very nice, but the bed was awfull. The area was okay with a supermarket nearby. 40 min walk from the riviera with restaurants and souvenir shops.
- David (2/5): Give this a miss at all costs. - Paid for a double bed in a double room ended up with a double bed in a room that you could not swing a cat in. No where to put clothes in, not one set of drawers or bedside cabinet to put clothes or any other small items in. Owners son needs education in mannerisms, very abrupt and outwardly hostile.
- John (8/5): - Lovely owners.. Excellent value for money
- Maria (8/5): Friendly family owed hotel - 25 min walking from downtown, family owned hotel w very helpful and warm staff. Due to the low price I think this hotel is great, since the room was clean and normal condition and the hotel old but charming. I expected less due to the price. I had a pleasant stay.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Short staying - Family run hotel, staff extremely polite. Hotel in good condition, the building itself is a bit old, but it looks nice inside. I had a double room with basic furniture and an OK bed, if you're looking for a budget accommodation you will be pleased. The kindness of the staff is a plus.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Guy at reception (looks like owner) don't really speaks English.
Payment in cash only, had to go looking for a cash machine.
Economy room is in basement with just a small window, probably better pay 5 euro extra for a better room.
Towels and linens are not very clean.
- Joao (10/5): Nice and helpful accomodation. - Very central place, very helpful and friendly people. Rooms tidy and clean.
- carol c (8/5): A few days in Porto - It was my first time in a hostel and was pleasantly surprised. Father and son were wonderful. Pablo took us to our room, showed us on map where we were and what to do, also made great recommendations for dinner. It is located outside if city but easy walk. Room and bathroom clean with fresh linens. We would stay there again!
- Verified traveler (6/5): This is what you can get for the price I guess - Pros: Great location, you can walk to downtown in 25 minutes max. Also, the personnel is very friendly. They try to solve your problems ASAP. The price was great too, just 20 Euros per room. If you have a car, free parking around the corner. Cons: The main photo on hotels.com is deceiving, that is not the correct one. The cleanliness of the room was not that great. The bed sheets had a peculiar smell that disturbed us. Also, when you enter the hotel, a disturbing odor welcomes you as well. The biggest problem was heating. The room was cold and they have no heating system at all in the rooms. So, they provided us with oil radiators which are not safe for that type of hotel. The receptionist claimed that the owner of the hotel is not allowing them to install any type of heating system, which sounded strange to me. Overall, I got what I expected for the price, but heating is a basic service that should be provided to all customers regardless of the conditions of the hotel. So, the decision is up to you.
- bruce + linda (6/5): some thing different - the hotel is a a lot further from the historic area than we had hoped - however - 2 of our best interactions with the local residents took place here - the food and drinks were ridiculously cheap and the people did their best to help us get breakfast and dinner - the room was tiny and it was warm inside but this is the one experience we will talk about for a long time - the rooms and the check in place are about 200 steps apart - Paulo gave us the quick tour as he escorted us to the "Filial"
