D&S - Crocodile House S. Bento Apartments

It’s centrally located and well-equipped, but comfort could be better. The furniture is in poor condition, there are unpleasant smells, and the soundproofing is terrible.

It was a nice touch that they left coffee capsules, and the place was clean and just right for two. It’s less comfortable for four: the sofa bed is roomy but not very comfortable, and they hadn’t provided four pillows. I used cushions with a clean towel over them instead. The house is old and has a lot of wood, so you can hear everything. The location is great, but if you’re driving you’ll need to park a bit away. I recommend Trindade parking lot, which is a little farther than Poveiros but much easier to get in and out of.

The apartment was very clean, in an ideal location, and the service was impeccable. Sound insulation is almost nonexistent, though. You can hear people using the stairs to the apartments above, as well as noise from the street.

The apartment has been fully renovated and is right in central Porto. A good spot for a few days in the city.
