My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room that solved the wifi issue was huge and very clean, with a large bed, a desk with a chair, a chair with a footstool, and a settee. The friendliness and welcoming attitude of the student team added to the delightful experience. The location was perfect, in a quiet residential area yet walking distance from the old town and all sights to visit in Oporto. The dining room offered a fairly comprehensive buffet style at the weekends with a variety of options. The facilities were top-notch.
