Residencial Borsalino

"Pros-very cheap, central location, parking Cons-we were put in a basement room which was incredibly damp and mouldy. We were moved upstairs to a slightly better room Tiny TV Threadbare towels Peeling paint Embarrassingly poor breakfast Lots of traffic noise"

"Check in was a little difficult with absolutely no English spoken by the owners/workers, but they were nice and friendly and tried hard to communicate. Would be no problems if you speak Portugese. This is not a hotel, more of a homestay. Breakfast is very basic, don't expect much, but its included in the price so ok. Location isnt too great, need an uber to get to most sights but is much better value than those hotels located in Gaia or Porto riverside. Id prefer to save some money and uber in/out. Room was perfectly fine in size for one person, may have struggled with 2 people. Smallest bathroom I've ever seen - but the shower was big enough and had nice hot water. Bed was comfy, large and had nice linen. Room was really clean and cosy. Only small thing, is a bin would've been nice in the room. Balcony would've been a nice place to sit in the afternoon but only one small stool out there and the whole balcony hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Overall a good value stay but dont expect hotel quality. It has more character and nice to support local business anyway."

"The stairs No shelves in ensuite for toiletries Average breakfast Great parking although a little tricky to drive in. Friendly accommodating and helpful staff. Always willing to make your stay comfortable. Lovely newly refurbished room but can get quite hot in the summer. Good wifi and many English TV channels. Away from the hustle and bustle of touristy Porto. Always great to get back from the Centre and be with the lovely locals. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. The bathroom was small and would suggest a small shelf or two for toiletries but not an issue. Would be happy to recommend."
