“This lodging provides a simple, budget-conscious base to explore Porto; some rooms include a fridge and microwave, which is handy. It's located conveniently enough to make seeing the city relatively easy, though be prepared for stairs, and cash payments only. For those seeking an affordable stay focused on experiencing the city, this could fit the bill.”
