Vitor and his family are incredibly kind. Vitor goes out of his way to help you, and make sure you have everything that you need. The communication was prompt and good. Vitor speaks English very well, even though he doesn't think so! :) He gave me a lot of great advice about Porto and what to do and where to go. I went to Pedro dos Frangos for dinner, which he recommended- it was good and very cheap. The location could not be any better. It is literally across the street from the train station, and just around the corner from the metro. It is centrally located, between older parts (Ribeiro and the Luis Bridge), and the newer parts and shopping centers. There are cafes and restaurants also very nearby if you want to grab something quickly, or wait for your check-in time.
The room was basically what I expected. I found it to have decent value considering it has a private bathroom, which was great. However, the shower is a bit awkward to get into since the bidet is right in the way. It would not be comfortable for larger people, or anyone unsteady on their feet. Also, there is a sliding glass door to close the door to the bathroom. If you're alone, obviously you don't need this, but if you're a couple, it could be awkward, since I don't think your knees would fit inside once the door is closed. I think this room is best suited for a single person, or a couple that is very comfortable together.
The room itself was fine, there was a rack with hangers for hanging up clothes, and there was a chair, which was nice because there isn't a lot of other space to rest things. The wifi is spotty, but if you open the small window near the stairs, it works slightly better. The only thing I didn't like about the room was that the ceiling fan blades go right over the light, so if you have both the light and fan on at the same time, it creates a disco affect, which was actually really hard on my eyes, and gave me a bit of a headache. It would be great if somehow, the fan and the light could be spaced apart to avoid this.
