Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay overall at this hotel. The room was clean and quiet, but there was a bit of noise, maybe from the plumbing or air conditioning. The service was friendly and helpful, especially with accommodating my special needs. The location was good for accessing nearby attractions, but a bit far from the main parts of town. The dining experience was decent, although the coffee was really terrible.
The hotel offers functional rooms in line with the pictures and description on the booking website. The service staff is accommodating and well-trained, though knowledge of the public transportation system may be lacking. The location is suitable for travelers with a car, providing easy access to Porto, Gaia, and nearby beaches. The dining options, while not extravagant, offer a consistent experience. Overall, a value-for-money stay with minor inconveniences.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were great, and the staff was wonderful. However, there was some noise, possibly from the plumbing or air conditioning, and the room was always extremely warm.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, although clean and tidy as expected from Ibis, were quite noisy due to thin walls, leading to some morning disturbances. On the bright side, they were quiet and everything was in good condition. The service was incredible, with the staff being super nice and helpful, even accommodating my special needs. The location was convenient for accessing the local cafe at the bottom of the hill, yet a bit farther from Porto downtown than I anticipated, leading to extra taxi expenses. The dining experience was decent overall, though the coffee was a letdown. The facilities were simple but satisfactory.

The hotel is conveniently located near Porto Airport, making it a good choice for travelers with early flights. The rooms are basic but comfortable and clean, and the staff is helpful and accommodating. However, the dining options are limited, and the location, while close to the airport, is in a less attractive area.
The hotel is conveniently located near the Arrabida Bridge and is a good choice for those with early flights from Oporto airport. The rooms are clean with trendy design but are a bit small. The service is a mix of very friendly but somewhat detached staff. The dining options are basic, and guests might prefer to dine at a nearby Ibis hotel. The location is convenient for airport access and shopping but a bit outside Porto city center.
