The breakfast selection was pretty good. But where the problems lay was our room. When we flushed the toilet it ran forever, and when I went down to reception to report the issue, I was met with a very lukewarm response of ”you need to push both buttons”. Later on we required a couple more pillows for our room. I went down to reception. The first question asked was let me check if we have any more. She brought out one and stated that there should be another one in the closet. There wasn’t. And the pillows were not very good at all. Over all that receptionist was not very friendly, nor did she seem to care at all. Over all our stay was manageable, but if given a choice I would not stay there again.

This hotel was definitely in a great location to enjoy historical sites, shops of all sorts and bars and restaurants. The room itself was good and was very quiet considering it’s located in quite a hub of activity. Staff were friendly and helpful and it even had an elevator which was a lovely bonus. For the money I paid I would highly recommend it.

The hotel or Expedia failed us. I booked two rooms. One room with one bed and the other room with two beds. My confirmation print out shows that. The hotel oahd two rooms with one bed only. They said I did not reserve two beds for one room. My confirmations shows otherwise. They did not have another room available to accommodate the request. Someone messed up and we had a big problem with that.

CONS: No cool air conditioning, when I turned on the air con it was just a fan causing the room to smell of cigarettes, my guess was the air intake was near a smoking area, there were homeless and sketchy looking guys hanging near the entrance.

The staff were good but when we needed something and reception staff were detained dealing with a large group checking in, we had to ask the staff working the bar to call us a taxi because there was only one staff working reception. The rooms for 2 people are quite small but very clean. The mattress was a thinner mattress on top of another mattress. The top mattress often shifted in the night. On occassion, we almost landed on the floor. The breakfast buffet was very good. Lots of options.

if not for the bed, it was great!

Nice and adequate breakfast buffet with pastries, fruit, cereal, yogurt, meat and way more. The room was clean and roomy. We booked for 2 twin beds but we received one of them as a child bed which was not only too thin for an adult but even for a child would have been dangerous with a side board covering over 1/3 of the bed over the head. So one of us had to sleep on the floor and that's not what we paid $200 per night for. Disappointed. They should have mentioned on their page the situation of the bed or called it child bed.
Location was alright, a bit of walk to most areas to see.

Hotel was in a good location right next to a large supermarket and lots of restaurants. No fridge which is not an issue but when asking for ice this was hard. Air conditioning was non existent. Rooms were clean and beds were comfy. Be careful booking a ‘mutliple bed’ room as the hotel consider this a family room but it was the same price as a twin bed room in hotel.com with no mention of it being a family room.

I have used Ibis around the world and unfortunately this property was the worst I had been. First of all, there is a drug dealer on the right corner (bald guy with beard), multiple times when leaving the hotel we saw this guys selling drugs, it is a shame the hotel keep this situation.
It is a great location but that specific street is super decadent with homeless people around, kind of unsafe if go back to hotel late night, specially because they lock the front door and you need to ring a bell multiple times for than to unlock and so you can go upstairs.
They have the worst towel service for the room ever! They only provide (for a couple) 2 regular towel super small for any usage, no face towels, and on the worst condition possible.
Besides the location close to other tourist points, there is not any good point in the hotel.

This place needs some work. There were homeless people living in the entry way, the staff at the front desk and breakfast were not welcoming or kind. The advertising all talks about \"service with a smile\" yet not one employee ever smiled. We were told we'd get a discount for parking, yet we paid what the sign at the entrance of the garage said. The breakfast was minimal and not repeatedly stocked. Overall the worst place we stayed in Portugal.

I loved the location. Less than a block away is a busy square with restaurants, cafes and bars; it's always bustling. The hotel was an easy (mostly flat) 10-minute walk from a metro stop. It's two blocks from an easy-to-use laundromat. A supermarket is attached to the hotel. It's an easy walk to the touristic highlights of Porto. The price was attractive, too, as was the breakfast.

The hotel is situated close to the centre of Porto. Rooms are what you expect for this price, adequate but perhaps a bit tight, though they could do with new towels.
