“In my view, this downtown spot has a lot going for it, particularly its spacious, recently updated rooms-especially those with a balcony and large shower. The breakfast quality needs attention, and some areas could use refreshing. However, the friendly night porter and prime location make it an easy recommendation for Porto.”
