Good location for walking to different sites.

Loved arriving at this grand old mansion with wrought iron gates and beautiful old architecture. Our room was not in the original building but in a separate building. The room itself was quite spacious and well laid out but it had a strong damp smell, and a very noisy fan which seemed to operate on a timer so it ran all day and switched off at about 9pm - it meant that being in room was not relaxing. There is an external courtyard for each of these rooms and then a large common grassed area with sun lounges and a pool - it could have been beautiful but instead the garden areas were a bit neglected, grass long and not mowed, edges not trimmed, etc. There is laundry available for use - unfortunately the laundry facilities were a bit dirty. Location was good, a 10 minute walk to quite a few restaurants and bars - including a bar right next door. Parking available on site (extra cost) and you can order a breakfast basket which is brought to your room - good value and very convenient.

Exceptional location within Porto. The apartments we had were well equipped and very clean. Danielle was super helpful and whilst I did not see all staff their dedication was evident at the property. The property is stunning. Would recommend these apartments.

The apartment was very well situated for restaurants and tourist sites and importantly for us, had car parking space. The shutters of our large room opened onto a private patio area which in turn lead to the swimming pool. It was December, so too cold for that, but would be wonderful in summer. In the morning an extensive breakfast in a basket was delivered to our room. The room had a decent bathroom with plentiful hot water and an efficient heated towel rail. There was a gym for those so inclined. The only criticism I have to offer was that the furnishings were rather functional and there were no pictures on the wall at all which made the room seem slightly uninviting at first sight. We would definitely stay there again.

Highly recommend! Firstly, the staff are sooo kind and helpful. Allowing us to check in early, and upon check out we had to leave at 4 30 am and they woke up to send us the text message to inform the taxi is waiting, so grateful! The room (garden view) is lovely, the details are stunning and own private terrace is so cute. The pool and garden area make this place such a nice sanctuary to return to after a big day out exploring. Great to have a laundry for guest to use as well. So glad we chose to stay here, would stay again. Thank you to all of the Bnapartments staff for an amazing stay!

The hotel is away from the road in its own grounds with places to sit, and even has a communal kitchen, laundry and gym. It's a really tranquil retreat. There are also self-catering facilities in the room, and it looked like a good selection of pots, pans, etc - although we didn’t use this as it’s a short walk from some great bars and restaurants.
