Unfortunately the one stand-out part of this experience has that our room stank of stale cigarette smoke the moment we walked in.
The receptionist's response was tomlaugh awkwardly and agree it wasn't nice and that she'd 'clean' - but the room WAS clean. And the last thing I wanted was the smell of toxic cleaning products on top of the cigarette smoke. And the smell was in the rug and the furnishings, not in the bathroom or on the sheets.
Apparently changing rooms wasn't an option - the hotel was full. And I'd just paid. And didn't want to spend the one afternoon we had in Porto looking for another hotel.
So we stayed. It smelled less after 5 hours with the windows open while we were out. But there is nothing more disgusting to a non-smoker than being in a space that smells like this so we only slept in the room and spent as little time there as possible.
There was no information about this being a room where smoking was allowed and yet no responsibility was taken by the hotel.
There was a loud noise of some kind of pump or engine/ generator that we could hear on/ off all night coming from somewhere in the hotel. Fortunately I have earplugs. But not great.
So a big - eeeuggggh suns um our stay.
A real shame. Otherwise, the room was large, comfortable and clean.
We had the one bedroom apartment right beside the main hotel . Was bright and clean over looking the cafes below . It can a little loud in the evening . ( Protip) Make sure your windows are latched shut to minimise noise) shower was excellent . The hotel was close to everything and I highly recommend . Bring a translator app for conversation with front desk.
A fantastic apartment Everything you need for a great stay Wish it was longer Highly recommend There are many bars and places to est around the apartment
Our Studio suite was huge and very clean and the location was great within walkable distance to all the museums and attractions and far enough away from the large crowds by the river.
There was a nice patio area in front of the hotel with 6 different restaurants to dine at including a lovely bakery. Staff were accommodating and pleasant. Great spot.
