It is very good hotel location and very easy to get the train rstop to go the city center. My stay include my family and frineds are satisfied at the IBIS HOTEL. But I would like to suggest to the manager of this hotel that the shower booth should have the curtain or sliding door to prevent the water spread over or flood in the toilt. It is not convenience to do shower freely due to above reason.

Over a smallish shopping mall with supermarket and cafes, and right next to IPO metro station with frequent trams to Porto's historic centre. Much cheaper then more central hotels, so offered excellent value for money.

The hotel is strategically located next to a train stop and a shopping center. If you are looking for a good-budget hotel, this might be your option. It's not in the center of the tourist areas, however, you can get to the touristy places in 10 minutes. The rooms are clean and spacious.

Good option out of the city center
Really good option outside of the city center, but with easy access there and to the tourist attractions nearby. Good public transportaion, it also offers parking in case you need it. Breakfast is charged apart, but worth paying for. The property is located in the top of a shopping mall, which makes easier for shopping or food.

Convenient location with an affordable price
great location by the metro station and on the top of a shopping mall. Even though the hotel is not located in the city center, it is easy enough to get there and to the tourist attractions using the convenient metro nearby. The mall also offers a range of services, which makes shopping easier as well.

It was amazing stay at this hotel. The hotel is located near a metro station - less than one minute walk. The hotel is located in the third and fourth floor of shopping center.

After our first night, me and my partner started feeling a horrific itchiness. We checked the sheets but found nothing so assumed it was from a different wash we were using or something non related. However after our third night, we found blood spots on the bed sheets so decided to check the bedding - we were horrified to find what looked like a flea. As we were already checking out we decided to mention this to the lady on the front desk specifying that we were not after any compensation we simply wanted to inform. We also mentioned that during our 3 night stay our bedding was not once changed and at no point were we offered clean towels or room service. We were told that due to COVID-19 they would only clean our room if we requested it. However, surely especially due to the virus better cleanliness should be maintained to ensure everything is sanitised. Also we cannot request something we are not told is on offer. Overall I found the price we paid for the tiniest room without even space for a cot bed for our baby was not really worth it, and I’m now boiling all our clothes hoping we didn’t bring back any fleas or bedbugs.
