On arrival the reception area looked promising, however, the desk staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. The room smelled strongly of fish and chips/fried food, no matter how long you had the windows open for. The bathroom was dated and inadequate, the walls had big dents in, and the carpets were rank and I didn't want to walk barefoot on them.... more

Residencial Aviz is located a short always from Porto’s main commercial/shopping area (5 min walk). There are a few local cafés and restaurants close by. It is also a short walk (10 mins) from the Sao Bento train station / Metro station. You can take the metro from the airport to Sao Bento, making a change at Trindale metro station.... more

When we eventually found the hotel, we thought it was "quite off the beaten track", but it was actually very central to a big shopping area in Porto. There are a couple of metro stations about 5 minutes walk from the hotel, which was really handy. You can get the metro direct from the airport to the metro station close... more

We wanted a central hotel at a reasonable price and that is exactly what we got! 43 euros for a double room including breakfast. Unbelievable value. The hotel is about a 10/15 minute walk from the central sites/port warehouses. The rooms are a bit threadbare but they are spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. There is a slight smell of drains... more

i stayed there for a week me and my partner and it was the first time in my life that after the checkout i was happy. i mean do you know how it feels when you book a superior room in an amazing 4*and then realize that they just wanted your money without offering you services? that's why i m... more

We paid 92 euro's for 3 nights b&b and it was a mega bargain. £32 per person for 3 nights works out at just over £10 each per night ! Firstly this hotel is on a little hidden cul de sac off the begining of avenue de rodriguez . I would reccomend a cab to get there initially but once... more
