Very nice and helpful people at the desk and we enjoyed the breakfasts which were different every day. Apartment was beautiful with plenty of storage and we enjoyed the balcony. My only problem, being a short person, was getting in and out of the tub which had very high sides.

Everything was perfect. Staff were helpful and accommodating. Location is within short walking distance to attractions. Lots of places to eat in the area. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Each day they varied the hot food selection and salads. Room was spacious. Bathroom was spacious. AC/heating is centralized so can't control the temperature within the room. Hot water and water pressure worked. I enjoyed my stay at Portal.

The staff at the front desk were friendly and offered some great advice when asked about a few of the places I was thinking about visiting. The building sits on a relatively quiet street in the old town, so it is convenient but not as loud as I would imagine other locations might be. The room was clean and spacious but the bed was a little firm for my liking. Despite that, I would definitely stay here again.

What a wonderful stay we had at portal apartments. Very good location. Accessible. I would like to say that the showers were great but maybe having a wet room would be an upgrade. My mum fell getting into the shower. There is no spa on site as like it states on Expedia but they have people come in for massages reasonable priced too! Lovely little balcony. Breakfast was great those cakes were to die for. Many thanks for a lovely stay. Leanne

オールドシティの目抜き通りから一本離れ、落ち着いて宿泊出来ました。緑地と地下道を通ると駅やバスターミナルまで10分程度なので、市内観光やアウシュビッツまで出掛けるにも便利です。でも何より、バスルームはじめ館内が清潔、スタッフもフレンドリー、朝ご飯も美味しいです。私の部屋にはキッチンは備えて無かったですが、パンを切るナイフなど遠慮せずにリクエストすれば貸してもらえます。ともかくおすすめホテルです。
