"We really enjoyed staying here a very quiet hotel we didn’t hear a thing in our room. It was very handy for everything well appointed and spotlessly clean. The only thing we would suggest is that you use a much lighter quilt in the warmer months as it was far too hot despite the air conditioning ..."

"Very nice hotel, I barely heard any airplanes even though it's a 10 minute - a bit suicidal - walk to the airport. Only downside is the food choices and prices at their snack bar, which is just warmed up microwaved food."

Porto was a wonderful city. I wish we would have stayed a bit longer. Due to the Corona craziness we came back to the states early. Porto has great sangria and delicious food. There are many wineries and tons of history. I will be back one day.
