    Very helpful staff, well furnished and well-appointed room, located walk from a tube station. Particularly good and incredible location within a close distance from a historical square. Not too far away from the city centre attractions. Recommend the place.

    Bad free Wi-Fi.

    We loved everything about our stay at Shining View. The location was perfect, with easy access to Sao Bento station and plenty of great cafes and restaurants nearby. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and had a stunning view of the river and surrounding buildings. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. The host and check-in desk staff were friendly and helpful, and we appreciated the option to leave our luggage before check-in. The apartment's quiet atmosphere was a bonus, and we felt at home during our time in Porto.

    We felt well taken care of and had no complaints during our stay at Shining View.

    And thanks to its very central location it was close enough to Braga as well as the centre. Room was enjoyable in the bedroom upstairs, had a fine stay for a business trip.

    I loved the apartment even though some things didn't work.

    The property is excellent with nice facilities just next door to a nearby square, the old town and flatter parks and shops uphill. The apartment is marvellous, on a hill.

    Despite the downsides, the hotel had fantastic views of the river. The location was also great, with restaurants and major sites within walking distance. We were pleased to find that the hotel was clean and quiet, ensuring a peaceful stay. the stocked fridge and kitchen were a nice touch, allowing us to prepare some meals ourselves. The staff was responsive when we made requests, ensuring that our needs were met promptly. Lastly, the hotel provided great wifi, which was a bonus for staying connected during our Easter vacation.

    The beds only had a bottom sheet, which made them uncomfortable to sleep on. when we asked for more linens, we were told that they only provide a bottom sheet.
