A great first night place in a great location. There are a lot of steps to conquer. It’s old and dated but perfect for a place to sleep and get up early to leave.

You get what you pay for. Rough and ready but hot water, clean sheets and easy walking access to the wonderful city. Not suitable for wheelchair users or people with mobility issues. Not much English but welcoming. Squeaky beds so not the best for a honeymoon 😂😜

Nota 10

A gente precisa entender que este estabelecimento é um pensão mais do que SECULAR, e as características do imóvel têm que ser preservadas. Independente disso, tudo é muito limpo e organizado.

Muito boa a hospedagem, fiquei apenas uma noite e me atendeu super bem, perto de vários lugares turísticos, a recepcionista um amor de pessoa, fiquei em um quarto com banheiro mas usei o banheiro compartilhado pois a água do meu banheiro esquentava pouco e o outro esquentava mais, adorei a estadia e ficaria lá novamente, fui com a minha mãe de 76 anos e adoramos

設備は全部古く、旅行経験豊富な人用のホテル

駅に比較的近く（坂を上がる必要があるが）、便利だった。設備は全部古く、旅行経験豊富な人用のホテル。テレビもブラウン管のアナログだった（観なかったが）。 受付に電子レンジが有り、便利。ポット、水も受付に一つある。コンセントがベッド付近になく不便だった。小さい机と椅子は良かった。エレベータが無く、重い荷物がある場合大変。

Pensão aconchegante e muito bem localizada!

A hospedagem nessa pensão foi um dos pontos altos de nossa viagem. Fomos extremamente bem recebidos pela Marina, que é um amor de pessoa. Conversamos bastante com ela e ela nos deu dicas incríveis sobre Porto. A localização da pensão é excelente, perfeita. A pensão é bem antiga e simples, então não vá esperando luxo. Custo-benefício excelente. Tudo estava limpo e com cheirinho de limpeza. Voltaríamos com toda a certeza!

Sehr zentral gelegene Pension. Freundliche Rezeption, jederzeit erreichbar. Zimmer sehr klein und uralt. Bett knarzt und die Zudecken bestehen aus Leinentuch und einer Wolldecke. Die Nächte sind irrsinnig laut von der Straße her. Wochenende ist am Platz die ganze Nacht sehr laute Partystimmung.

Central/ barato mas não o melhor

Central e bom preço mas muito barulho. Fica mesmo no centro do Porto, a alguns passos da Torre dos Clérigos e a poucos minutos da Avenida dos Aliados. Percebe-se que é uma pensão antiga, não só pela decoração como pela falta de insonorização ( ouvem-se muitos barulhos da rua e dá a sensação de estar algum ar condicionado muito próximo do quarto) A tv tem muito poucos canais de tv, pelo que não é indicado para quem espera ver alguma tv. A luz de teto não funciona. Carrega-se no interruptor mas nunca chega a acender. Não chega a ser mau, uma vez que existem outras fontes de luz. O estor do quarto não tem como puxar para baixo, a não ser que se puxe mesmo pelo estor. E não é bom a tapar a visibilidade da manhã.
