I have mixed feelings about Porto Vista. Here are some pros and cons about the place:
Pros:
-The place is in a great location. It's in a parallel street from India St. which is where all of the restaurants of Little Italy are. Great spot to do the Hop on Hop Off tour!
-The room is comfortable, the bed has a nice mattress.
Cons:
-Our bathroom was not 100% clean, there was a hair in the sink when we first arrived.
-The pool was closed before its closing time which is at 9 pm. We asked to have it opened for us since it was 8 pm, but the heater was turned off and we did not get to enjoy the pool because it was extremely cold.
-Another thing that I did not quite like is that no one helped us with our luggage. My friend and I had to push the cart by ourselves and it was very uncomfortable. In every hotel that I have stayed in there were bellboys to help us with the luggage and the cart, but no one helped us in Porto Vista hotel. Also, when we checked out and asked for the cart to help us bring down the luggage, no one brought it up for us and we had to go down to the lobby to get it ourselves. I'm not sure if this is due to COVID, but I would have liked better service.
