Porto 271 Mouzinho Apartamentos

The perfectly located room (2 min away by my favourite pastry shop Castro and by the breathtaking São Bento station, close to the water and the historical street Flores) has everything you need, from a washing machine to a comfortable shower, to a small (but fully equipped) kitchenette for your self-made breakfast. The space was spotless clean and the closed windows made the main street outside pretty inaudible.

Location, all worked, clean.

Needed more clothes hangers.

It was a little smaller than expected, but that did not detract from the stay. It was in an excellent location, in fact would be difficult to improve on that. The facilities were very good too. Having the washing machine was a huge bonus. Clean and tidy, and good to be level tea and coffee facilities.

Only one small detail. There was a storage box at the end of the bed that had quite a bit of rubbish in there, obviously things other guests had left there. But it made this unusable and was unsightly. Other than that, no issues at all.

Not being able to use the washer! A great effort by the cleaning lady but it did not work due to language barrier. I had contacted the host and was told the cleaning lady would let me know. I happened to be there when the lady was there one day and she made a valliant effort to help but my lack of understanding the language prevented that. The host never contacted me to see if the issue was resolved!. In fact, I can't remember any contact other than being given a code and telling me the cleaning lady would help.. It would have been nice to have a check in to see how things were going!
