Guest Reviews
- Corby (10/5): Will definitely try to stay here again when visiting Porto. - Clean and spacious apartment. Great location. Helpful staff.
- francis (9/5): - Très bel appartement.
Petites attentions très appréciées comme du bon café à disposition, une petite boîte de sardines.
L'emplacement idéal Le centre ville est bruyant mais il y a du double vitrage.
Les photos laissent croire que ça donne sur un jardin alors qu'il n'en est rien.
- Linda (9/5): Roomy, clean and great location. - It was very clean and comfortable. Walking distance to everything and good eateries nearby. Also a laundry is very near. It was lovely having the windows open because of the views and trees outside the windows, but the road is busy and fairly noisy quite early with trucks and bus noise.
- francis (9/5): - Très bel appartement en plein centre. Un petit peu bruyant à cause de l'emplacement.
Nous nous sommes fait cambrioler notre voiture devant l'immeuble.
- Kelvin (8/5): -
- Tuna (5/5): - Konumu merkeziydi.
Oda ve mutfak genişliği iyiydi. Asansör yoktu. Valizleri dar merdivenlerden birkaç kat çıkarmak zorunda kaldık.
Saat 16:00 olmadan bilgileri göndermediler. Otele 15-16:00 arasında ulaştık yağmur da yağıyordu, booking.com ve WhatsApp'tan iletişime geçtiğimiz halde hiçbir cevap vermediler. Mecburen bir cafe'de bilgileri göndermelerini bekledik. Halbuki otel yakınında valizlerimizi birakabileceğimiz bir yer varmış, ama bu bilgiyi de önceden vermedikleri için kullanamadık.
Yatak odasının üstü açık ve kapısı yoktu.
Banyo kapısı gicirdiyordu. Bu yüzden gece tuvalete girerken epey gürültü oluyordu. Banyoda malzemeleri koymak için de hiçbir alan yok.
- Maureen (8/5): Very good - Lovely apartment, very central location.
The Spot Lounge where we could leave our luggage were very helpful and pleasant One bed was really a couch, the other was a king sized. I had expected three beds.
- Trish (8/5): We enjoyed our one nights stay - It was a lovely apartment. Well furnished. Comfortable bed Everything was to our liking
- Stephen & Amanda (10/5): -
- JORGE (10/5): Ma ra vi llo so - Ma ra vi llo so Todo súper genial
- Armanda (10/5): -
- wooran (7/5): -
- Sindy (9/5): Very nice clean & warm setting ! ❤️ - Convenient location. Suggestions- Maybe more hooks put in restroom, so guests can hang up the towels & clothes.
- Katrin (7/5): -
- YEUN HEE (8/5): -
- FRANCISCO ANTONIO (8/5): -
- Gillian (9/5): -
- georgina (5/5): - The noise from the road the building site next door and the generator from the council building next door
Also the front door bell being rung every 20 mins for hours at night
- Desiree (8/5): ESTANCIA CÉNTRICA EL OPORTO - La ubicación y el apartamento en si El primer tramo de escaleras no es nada cómodo
- Begiashvili (9/5): Really good value of money - I liked how clean it was and the place was really good The only thing I didn’t like about the apartment is that the check-in time was 4 PM which is I think really late check in
- Michele (10/5): -
- mika (4/5): The place is clean and good location but we didn’t get what we booked and when we asked for it we never got help or comp - It was clean and nice location We specifically booked this apartment because it offered 4 single beds. However, when we arrived late at night, two of the beds were joined together with double bedding.
When we contacted the hosts, instead of taking responsibility, they insisted we were wrong and told us to find extra sheets in the closet and change them ourselves. To make matters worse, the sheets weren't even there. We had to wait until 11:30 PM for the host to finally bring linens, and we ended up having to make the beds ourselves in the middle of the night after a long day of travel.
While the hosts were polite in their tone, the way they handled the situation was unacceptable. An apology the next morning doesn't make up for a ruined first night and the lack of basic preparation. Would not recommend if you rely on specific sleeping arrangements.
- Fenig1 (7/5): - Un appartement renové en centre ville près du métro. Pour le transport des bagages par un tiers transporteur, le gestionnaire des appartements, demande la centralisation au siège de la societé SPOT, nous obligeant a transporter nous même 2x nos bagages.
- Francoise (10/5): - The apartment was beautiful and very well equipped. The location is excellent in easy walking access to the Bolhao market and shopping streets and the underground. The only point of criticism was that the stairs up to the first floor were very steep
- maria dolores (7/5): - Limpieza buena, menajr ok La cama de matrimomio eran 2 camas juntas que eso me da igual pero eran de 80cm de ancho sl igual que las 2 infividuales, no es comodo parexeque te vas a caer, nadie tiene hoy camas de 80cm. Las habitaciones son ruidosas porque las ventanas son antiguas, se oye todo el ruido de la calle por la noche , se escucha durante la noche motores del aire de otro edificio cercano y de 5:30 de ña mañana a 6:30 los camiones de basuras, y limpieza de calle, no se puede descansar y ademas entra luz xq son dos puertas de madera no persianas y no sellan bien. Ademas parar abrir laa ventanas es mecanismo antigua y pesan una barbaridad. No tiene ascensor pero eso ya lo sabia.
- Wiktor (9/5): -
- Mary (9/5): - Central location to all sights. 3 floors of stairs to access apartment.
- Christian (7/5): -
- Beatrice (8/5): -
- Mary (9/5): - Very central location. Can be some streen noise.
- Evi (8/5): Perfekt für eine Städtereise - Unkomplizierter Checkin, sehr sauber, bequeme Betten, tolle Lage, Zentrums nahe, genauso wie man es sich wünscht bei einem Städte-Trip
- Dirk (9/5): -
- Robert (10/5): -
- Nicholas (9/5): Great location very late check in - Location was excellent and very clean Self check in was late and it was raining. We also had a power cut and nobody came to fix it so we had to do it ourselves
- cheema (10/5): Will definitely recommend to friends but i will give some honest, realistic expections - The location
The value for money
Completeness of all the things you basically need in an apartment and i mean it when I say “complete” The property is 12 mins walk from the reception which is ascending path walk while pushing a stroller
The lounge where you can leave your things for free is another 12-14 mins walk.
Check in time is at 4pm, you wasted already a whole day with this if this will be followed.
Everything was almost perfect aside from these points. They have to be more realistic with the lounge where guests can leave their things for free bec this costs 12 euros extra if we opt for luggage lockers.
- Scharikow (8/5): -
- Olivier Couery (8/5): - La rue qui passe en dessous est très passante. La circulation des voitures se poursuit tard le soir et l'isolation phonique de l'appartement n’est pas très bonne
- Simona (10/5): Da tenere presente per i prossimi viaggi - L’appartamento , il gusto, la disponibilità, la pulizia, le piccole attenzioni Le scale ripide e numerose per arrivarci. Scala scomoda e gradini alti
- Joanna (10/5): - Bardzo przyjemny, czysty apartament w świetnej lokalizacji.
- Marta (4/5): Apartment infected with ants - Location was good and bed was really comfortable Ants! We left some sweets on the kitchen table only to get back to millions of ants. Staff reacted quickly and send cleaning team next day, but I was still finding multiple ants in various locations of the apartment.
Also communication was weird. First we received message saying that we cannot check in yet because “guest mistakenly entered our apartment”, then there were not responding to any of my messages. When they finally responded they did not answer any of my questions, just said that we can finally check in. There were also lots of spam messages on booking urging me to pay and confirm my reservation.
- Riccardo (8/5): -
- Yuk Yin Au (8/5): Ik zou wel nog een keer appartement boeken voor de toekomst - Locatie was goed
Ruime appartement
Alleen klein probleempje bij inchecken
Sleutels van ons kamer lag niet in kluis, na lange tijd was dit uiteindelijk opgelost
Maar tijdens het wachten op de oplossing, konden we niet naar buiten
- Victoria (10/5): Really enjoyed this apartment in a great location - We loved it here. The apartment was really well laid out - one room with a sitting room area with settees and kitchen area with a table and chairs. Was very relaxing with really nice big windows, that have shutters for night time. Bedroom a good size with lovely big windows and lots of wardrobe space. The apartment was near shops, cafes, restaurants, transport. This was a great place to stay.
- Tayob (10/5): bom - localização
- Patrick (7/5): -
- cinzia (10/5): Molto bello! Torneremo - Posizione fantastica, pulitissima
Ci tornerò sicuramente Ho scritto per poter anticipare il
Check-in e la struttura ha accolto la mia richiesta… arrivati alla struttura di fatto non è stato così, l’appartamento ci è stato consegnato circa 15 minuti prima dell’orario da loro stabilito.
L’accoglienza alla reception e stata poco professionale
- Csilla (9/5): Tolles Apoartement, immer wieder gerne - Das Apoartement liegt sehr zentral. Gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in unmittelbarer Nähe.
Gut ausgestattete Küche. Geräumige Zimmer und sehr gutes Bett. War alles bestens, aber eine Nespressomaschine wäre schön gewesen, Filterkaffee ist nicht mein Ding.
- Jolufg (8/5): -
- Miguel Angel (10/5): -
- Łukasz (9/5): -
- Nuno (7/5): -
- Rafael (8/5): Buena ubicación a buen precio - Buena ubicación y todo nuevo No hay ascensor y estaba en 3a planta. No tienytv smart TV y el sofá del salón es incómodo
- Juliet (8/5): Great apart from communication issues - Great location, comfortable bed The communication was confusing. Lots of messages asking what time we were arriving which I answered with no response then we took our cases to the storage place as we’d been told the apartment wasn’t free until 4pm but at the storage the told us it was ready.
I have a bad knee and my daughter was recovering from food poisoning so the extra journey was a drag.
Clearer communication needed
- Ross (6/5): - Location was excellent and the room was ideal for hat we needed The weather was poor and we got rain pouring into both bedroom which resulted in bags and the clothes inside getting wet
- Bel (8/5): - tot no anava l'aire acondicionat
- João (10/5): -
- Nanhee (9/5): - 룸컨디션도좋고 위치도좋고 러기지센터싀 서비스 휴식공간은 체크인시간이전 도착한 우리에게 너무 만족스러웠습니다 직원도 무척이나친절했어요 아쉬운점 엘리베이터가없고 층계가 좁아무거운 캐리어를 3층까지 옮겨야해서 정말 너무힘들었어요ㅜㅜ
- Jorge (10/5): Do melhor - Tudo fantástico N/a
- Bärbel (9/5): -

- SERANG (7/5): -
- Jose (9/5): Agradables navidades en oporto - Muy buena Ubicacion .el apartamento pequeño pero muy acogedor Si tuviera horno y lavadora seria perfecto.pero entiendo que no hay espacio.habia una lavanderia cerca que lo soluciona en parte.
- Pereira (10/5): -
- Mabel (9/5): Comfortable stay - Easy access to apartment as no need to contact owner of property on time to meet up. Kitchen is full equiped. There was power trip in the whole building once a day. Lucky for us a guy who stayed on the 2nd floor managed to find the circuit switch and turned the power back on.
- Paolo (10/5): -
- ArneThomas (10/5): - Just great Nothing
- Karine (9/5): Muito bom! - Muito bem localizado! Camas bem confortáveis, roupa de cama bem limpinha. Apartamento com todos os utensílios necessários de cozinha etc. é a segunda vez que ficamos! Recomendamos. Não é algo necessariamente ruim. Apenas um ponto para ter atenção na hora de escolher: o primeiro lance de escadas é bem desconfortável, podendo ser até inviável para uma pessoa com certa dificuldade de locomoção.

- Andrei (10/5): - Местоположение, дизайн, чистота, тепло (январь ), отличный сервис. Отличное место.
- Francisco (9/5): - Excelente ubicación, personal amable, cómodo.
- Jessica (6/5): -
- Eliza M D (10/5): Lovely accomodation - The location is excellent, right next to the town hall, we walked to all the main sights easily. The apartment is spacious and clean and had everything we needed. We were here in the winter and used the AC to heat the apartment without issues.
You have to go up the stairs to the apartment so keep that in mind if your luggage is heavy. We had small suitcases so it wasn't a problem
- Feliciano (10/5): Excelente localização - Localização, apartamento completo
- Ray (7/5): First class location - Location perfect easy walking distance to almost everything. Was a bit cold i know it was December but could have had a bit more heat was only warm close to heater.
- Olha (10/5): - Апартаменты были чистые, место расположения очень удобное в самом центре Порто. Так и не смогли подключиться к Wi-Fi сеть не отображалась и не подключалась.
Было холодно, пришлось включить кондиционеры, но через некоторое время выключился свет от напряжения. Правда хозяин быстро помог включить на счетчике свет.
- George (10/5): Clean and tidy. - The location was a central and very perfect for night walks around the city.
- Sergiy (9/5): -
- Elida (10/5): - Todo bien, no hay queja Es un 3 piso y sin ascensor, pero por el resto bien
- Jaqueline (6/5): -
- ramon (9/5): - La situació, està just al centre, pots anar a tot arreu a peu.
L'apartament equipat amb tot lo necessari per una estada i el llit extra gran i comodíssim.
Relació qualitat preu molt bona. Potser el tema de calefacció una mica just, li faltava una mica de potència es exterior i 1r pis, amb les finestres antigues i sense aïllar. Això també fa que sigui una mica sorollós, se sent tot lo que passa al carrer.
- Dany (9/5): -
- Nada (10/5): Agréable et très bien placé dans le centre de Porto. - L’emplacement est super.
L’appartement est pratique et confortable.
- Alberto (8/5): Buen apartamento menos por los ruidos - Apartamento bien equipado, limpio y muy bien situado Lo malo del apartamento la impermeabilización, por las ventanas de madera entra fácilmente el frío y los ruidos bastante molestos de la calle
- Sofia (7/5): -
- Alfonso (10/5): -
- Oleg (1/5): Life threatening situation could happen if you stay here - 0 We booked these apartments for two nights in Porto.
On the first day, when we attempted to leave the building for a walk, the main exit door to the street was locked, and there was no alternative exit. We contacted the host, and after approximately one hour someone unlocked the door. The host apologized and explicitly admitted that this was their mistake, explaining that they had given a key capable of locking the main entrance door to another person. They also confirmed that they were aware someone had locked the door.
Despite knowing about this serious issue, the host took no corrective action. They did not retrieve the key, did not disable the lock, and did not ensure the door remained accessible. No measures were taken to prevent this situation from happening again.
The following morning, at around 6:00 AM, when we tried to leave the building to mind my business before our flight, the exact same situation occurred. Once again, the exit door was locked, and we were unable to leave the building. I repeatedly called and messaged the host, but received no response.
This is the only emergency exit from the building. In the event of a fire or any other emergency, escape would have been impossible. This represents a serious safety violation. We were effectively trapped inside the building.
As no assistance was provided by the host, I contacted the police. Police officers arrived, and firefighters were also called to help free us from the third floor of the building. I am currently waiting for the official police report documenting this incident.
This situation ruined my stay, business opportunities, caused extreme stress and panic attacks, negatively affected my health, and prevented me from fulfilling important business obligations scheduled for that day.
- Bruno (8/5): - someone locked the building door from the inside which made it impossible to open with the code so I had to go back to the reception which is a 5 min walk
