Castelo de Paiva Holidays

I enjoyed my five day trip to Porto. The hotel was very convenient and walking distance to Chapel of Souls, local cafes, supermarkets, Bolhão Market and the metro stations. The staff were very friendly and the courtyard round the back is very lovely. The daily bottled water was a nice touch.

The difference is that you are comparing Europe to the USA, and they are just different. I think the location is pretty good, and the balcony (although really small) is really nice. For the price, I think it's a pretty good deal, but...I don't know what the price is now...

Les chambres et le bâtiment sont impeccablement propres et agréables. Très bien situé à proximité de tout à pied. Restaurants et petits commerces à profusion, vous aurez l’embarras du choix. Accueil de Carla impeccable et chaleureux, allez y les yeux fermés.

The hotel was clean and located in good area. However it seemed that the staff would turn off the AC from the control panel in the lobby. I went downstairs multiple times a day to complain the room was too hot. Not once did they offer to change rooms and just made excuses it takes time for AC to turn on. It was uncomfortable sleeps making the trip not as enjoyable as it should have been. I understand they want to save money however guests are paying for an enjoyabke stay and should be able to control the temperatures in their room at their choosing.
