Excellent hotel in Porto at reasonable rate

Pros: Beautiful, interesting, old mansion with lots of character Great garden/grounds Nice, modern room Good breakfast Friendly helpful staff
Cons: Parking was a bit tight Though in the center of the city, the location is a bit outside core touristic areas but metro is nearby
Location: You need to walk or take your car, taxi or public transportation to go to the main attractions in Porto
We liked very much our experience at this hotel. Recommended for stay in Porto
