    The swimming pool at a sister hotel is no more than a plunge pool and staff wouldn’t allow us in until 9.30

    The staff are incredibly helpful and kind. The location cannot be bettered and the accommodation superb

    Friendly welcome, nice bar, room was clean and spacious with a view onto the street to people watch. Was a nice surprise to be able to use the pool facilities and a sister hotel down the road. Was perfect for a trip to Porto, although it is at the top of a hill but where isn't in Porto.

    I didn’t like: - the noise of the restaurant and bar downstairs (owned by the same owners). Noise due to clients, music, restaurant air extractor, changing room of the staff on the guest’s floor... - the breakfast: not a buffet, no eggs, mostly sugar and too small

    I liked: - location is ideal to visit around by foot - reactivity of the staff - self check in - the bedroom

    The pool has a drainage point on the bottom that's a bit sharp in places around the edge - my son cut his foot. (Not badly but not ideal either).

    Access to the sister hotel's pool was key for us - thank goodness it was there, small but just what you needed especially with a 14 year old lad, keen to mess around! Staff were v helpful and friendly at all times. Our room itself was great, spacious and with a fab view out into the little street below - old part of town so beautiful. Location location location - near the tiny, steep streets (bring proper walking sandals/trainers - not flip flop-friendly!), the train station and down to the town and river. Breakfast was a highlight - expensive but we loved it (just once, as great cafes only a few mins away).

    The barking is not at the hotel, and it costs 20 euros per day. No coffee machine in the room.

    It is a very nice place in the city center.

    The pool which was highlighted in the amenities was not on site, a 5 minute walk away which was enough to just make it annoying enough to not go check it out. The room was always left tidy enough by the staff but didn't have the feel of being really cleaned, exactly. Any trash that obviously was trash, like a pizza box that didn't fit into the little trashcan was left out by the staff after they cleaned our room. So it wasn't a big deal but didn't feel the way I think it should feel when you come back to your room after a day out exploring.

    The location was great - easy proximity to a lot of shops and food and the room was spacious and comfortable!

    The pool is not in this actual accommodation building, it is at another location around 5 minutes walk away. A code is given to enter. Very clean but just a slight inconvenient to have to walk to another location to use the pool. I would have been beneficial to have a small fridge in the room. Not the best if you have a car, it is a bit cheaper to park on the other side of the river and walk over.

    Clean, presentable room and corridors. Very friendly host, extremely welcoming and very helpful with everything, where to go, where to visit and explore (e.g.) the place to go to get the best city views without any cost, recommendations for places to eat and drink, restaurants suited for all diets and the best wineries in the area. The host had taken time with us to explain all of this, as much time as we needed any questions to answer and a complementary drink and snack to help us feel welcome and relaxed.

    I wish I would’ve known about parking validation before paying full price.

    The location was excellent; the host was very responsive and helpful; the facilities were clean, comfortable, and updated; the price was reasonable for what you get; we enjoyed using the pool too; it felt like home away from home.

    There was nothing we did not like about the hotel.

    The hotel was everything we could have wanted and more. The rooms were spacious (more spacious than some photos suggest) and very comfortable. The bathrooms were clean and modern and good quality towels were provided and replaced during our stay. The beds were extremely comfortable and bed linen was top quality. We really enjoyed our rooms being cleaned daily. Ricky was exceptional. He was so attentive, friendly, welcoming and his communication with us prior to and during our stay was top tier. We were a large group of 16 ladies with lots of needs which were all answered quickly by Ricky and his team. The location of the hotel was great, everything is in walkable distance and there are fantastic restaurants very close by.

    There was nothing to dislike about the property.

    From the moment we entered Alibi by YoursPorto we were made to feel extremely at home. The best welcome we have ever experienced. We arrived very early but Ricky spent time chatting and explaining about Alibi, it’s sister hotel and the area itself. We appreciated all the advice, recommendations and help received throughout our stay. The room was larger than we thought it would be and spotlessly clean. The hotel pool at their sister hotel, whilst only being small, was a welcome sanctuary away from the busy city. Again, we were made to feel extremely welcome by the staff. Towels provided, water and other drinks should we wish. We ate twice at the Alibi restaurant and were not disappointed. Typical Portuguese food was served to an exceptional standard. The staff, again were brilliant - Antonio (restaurant manager) and Ella were both very professional, friendly and informative about the menu and drinks - lovely cosy atmosphere in the restaurant. The wine bar at the front of the hotel was wonderful for a night cap. Bruno was very knowledgeable about the wines and ports and we enjoyed finding more out about the local wines/ports. You could also order food from the restaurant to eat at a table in the wine bar. All in all, as you may have guessed, we were very lucky to have found this amazing ‘boutique hotel’ - much better than any of the big hotels in the area.

    We had the top 3rd floor room, wonderfully quiet, high ceiling, spacious room and bath. Lovely light coming through the window and view of the city. DIdn’t hear a thing all night even though there is a restaurant on the ground level. Great bed. We were greeted and given a detailed orientation to the city, great eating suggestions and touring tips. Couldn’t have been happier.

    The bathroom in A5 could use a table or additional counter space next to the sink, where the former bidet used to be. The sink counter is too small for travel toiletries.

    Good location. Extremely hard working and helpful staff who really went above and beyond to help with check-in/check-out, in-house food/drinks, along with restaurant , sights, neighborhood suggestions.
