The staff (Bruno) was really really nice and helpful. Greatly appreciated his help. Thanks ! Room was very clean and recently renovated… but The room and bathroom were very small. And the window is facing a wall :(. Quite unpleasant. Isolation is bad, and so you can hear TV or any noise/loud voices of other rooms.

Room was small but we asked to upgrade and were able to get a larger room at a small cost. Very close to beach, bars and transport. Cafe underneath was very handy and pleasant.

Budget hotel, close to beach and restaurants
I did not know that you had to check in at another address 100 meters away. Not a big deal, but with many bags, it was cumbersome, especially needing to go across tram lines. Would be nice to have water bottles replenished each day.

A compact but very clean room, great location.
Room was clean, staff were friendly, great location in terms of travel (but can be noisy, not the fault of the hotel at all!) Bathroom was compact but fully functional. Check in out of hours is across the road from São Fran but absolutely no issues with checking in. TV, Aircon, cleaned daily. Direct Metro into Porto (Trindade) and short walk from the beach.

A very basic guesthouse. The room was a reasonable size and very clean. The bathroom however was tiny and sliding doors needed to manage it. The room decoration was quite plain. There were absolutely no problems with the hotel but it lacked any of the frills or extras.

Clean, Bright and Freshly renovated... Great Loca
This guesthouse is clean, bright and freshly renovated. Above all, the location is great for getting about as its about 50metres from Matosinhos Sul Metro Station that can get you to and from the airport or Porto very quickly, cheaply and efficiently. We were walking the Camino and it was a great location for that. There is a bakery next door for morning coffee, tea and pastries. A supermarket less than 5min walk away, and the beach and tourist office is just 2-3 minutes away. The walk into Foz do Douro or Porto along the promenade is quite pleasant (5km to Foz and about 11km all up to Porto.....or travelling north), dotted with restaurants or cafes along the way. The staff at the guesthouse were very helpful and pleasant. The only negative thing I could say is that the room and bathroom were exceptionally small, though the shower cubicle itself was of a reasonable size. I would recommend this hotel for location, cleanliness, cost and friendly staff.
