I stayed at Samuel’s for 4 nights in the bedroom next to the kitchen.
According to me here are the
Positives:
- if you plan on just coming back to the airbnb to sleep than the room is good for the price
- the location is great, lots of supermarkets nearby and 30 seconds from a metro station that takes you to the center of Porto
- walking distance to ponte Luis I with one of the best view of the city
- bedroom is clean
- hosts respect your privacy and possibility to lock the bedroom door
- common area is big and the dining table and kitchen are good
Negatives:
- the bathroom isn’t the cleanest and if you’re a little tall the shower cabin is very small
- No lock on the door of a shared bathroom
-there aren’t any drawer or anything to put away some clothes only 2 hooks behind the door which kept falling off. Because of this the room tends to get messy especially if you stay as long as 4nights.
- there is an AC noise from a parking lot nearby that doesn’t stop until late at night (you stop hearing it if you close the window but I stayed during summer so it was too hot to do so)
- there is a strong pipe noise some days in the morning from the building next door (it woke me up at 6am and I am not a light sleeper)
- only two electric sockets in the bedroom
