“The hotel struck me as a smart conversion of an older building, now offering surprisingly modern rooms a short walk from the Marques metro; even more appealing are the small details such as free parking and exceptionally helpful staff. I particularly appreciate that some rooms include spa tubs and sun terraces, rare finds at this price point. A solid choice for exploring Porto without breaking the bank.”
