Hotel Poveira

The location is good for one night if you have a late night arrival or early morning departure by train. Otherwise you are far from the heart of Porto. The staff was very friendly. they apologized for the construction. but In-progress updates aren't a concern. The furniture in my room was very worn down and the bed was so hard and uncomfortable that I slept on my sleeping bag for extra padding.

One of the best private room hostels I've ever stayed in, and was extremely cheap compared to other options here. Lives up to the 10/10 hype. Only thing to note is that if you are looking to socialize with other travelers, you may be off finding a more popular location. Otherwise, this is an amazing break from fast-paced travel.

Hotel Poveira was such a pleasant experience, from helpful hotel staff, to the cleanliness, quiet and comfort of the rooms. It had everything I needed. At first, I didn't understand how the blinds operated, but one of the staff was happy to show me that there's a knack to it, which alleviated my concern. The air conditioning operated perfectly. Breakfast wasn't included with my booking, but I was able to pay €8 in addition each time I ate breakfast, without any problems.
