Disliked: Amenities
The good - Bed was comfortable, Staff were friendly and helpful, location was great. The bad - Bathroom floor was soaked from leaking shower, we had a room that faced onto the street, even with triple glazing it was LOUD. No breakfast option available to us. The ugly - we retired for the night as we wanted to watch the football on the TV. We couldnt get the TV to work so reception came up, had a play around with it and said sorry - not working and left. Very disappointed to pay 100 pounds and not have a TV in the room.

Boa relação qualidade/preço.

A relação qualidade/preço é boa e apesar de estar a 10-20 minutos a pé do que mais interessa visitar no centro, faz-se bem o percurso. A cama era muito boa e o quarto, equipado com o essencial (TV, frigorífico, etc…). A única questão menos positiva é a janela ser muito pequena, quase não deixando entrar luz natural e dando uma sensação de claustrofobia.

Experiência aceitável

A recepcionista que nos atendeu foi bastante grossa, mas depois de eu reclamar de sua forma de falar, tratou-nos com mais Cortesia. Existem um estacionamento no hotel mais o valor da diária é elevado, €20,00. O hotel fica em uma região muito boa, com um café da manhã razoável, notamos apenas a falta de frutas no café da manhã e uma maior variedade de itens.

O acolhimento foi medriocre , entregaram e a chave do quarto e receberam os 2 € das taxas e foi só ! O frigorífico do quarto era mais forno ! Quente ! Informei quando sai! Não me forneceram o código Wi-Fi e no quarto o positivo foi a higiene e a cama confortável , nada a dizer em relação ! As fotografias foram no momento de sair ! Tudo estava impecável quando cheguei

Hotel bom, bonito e barato no centro do Porto

Escolhi esse hotel por causa dos comentários e não me arrependo. O melhor do hotel são os funcionários porque te fazem sentir em família, muito atenciosos e carinhosos. Excelente limpeza, encontrei o quarto limpo e cama super bem arrumada nos 6 dias que passei no hotel. A localização é perfeita pra quem deseja caminhar até o shopping ou mesmo pegar o Uber para visitar os lugares lindos e os melhores restaurantes da cidade. Eu recomendo e vou retornar a me hospedar nesse hotel todas as vezes que retornar ao Porto. Faltou somente um serviço de chá ou café no quarto. Desejo-lhes uma excelente estadia no Hotel América, na melhor rua do Porto, Portugal.

Wouldn’t return

Strange process of keeping the key when you go out. Every time I came home I had to buzz for ages to be let back in. Came back with my friend one night to await their taxi and was told I had to pay €25. Probably why they keep your key. We were talking in by room for all of 5 minutes before the same receptionist came up and complained about noise. We had no tv on or music playing. The walls must be paper thin as you’re not allowed to talk in your own room. Room itself had no window. This wasn’t advertised. Musty horrible smell in the room. Bathroom very grubby. And the shower was leaking.
