Guest Reviews
Location
The area is described as quiet, offering a peaceful retreat close to the city with less hustle and bustle from tourists. While some found the distance from the center to be a slight drawback, others appreciated the serenity and the ample amenities nearby. One downside noted by a few guests is the frequency of ambulances passing by due to a nearby hospital. Overall, Areosa’s location provides a quieter stay with convenient access to the essentials and public transport links connecting to Porto’s vibrant city life.
Breakfast
On the other hand, critiques focus on the breakfast being basic with limited options and quality not meeting expectations for some visitors. There are mentions of no fruit and descriptions of the food being minimal and occasionally subpar with stark criticisms about the freshness and value provided. Nonetheless, for those looking for a straightforward start to the day, the breakfast at Areosa seems to offer a no-frills yet adequate meal to begin the morning.
Rooms
However, it’s clear that not all aspects of Areosa match the initial expectations set by online bookings. Many rooms lack windows or have sealed ones, leading to poor ventilation and no natural light. This, combined with the absence of air conditioning, means rooms can get particularly warm, despite the provision of simple, albeit noisy, fans. The furniture and decor are quite dated, often described as 70s style, contributing to an atmosphere of deterioration. Issues with cleanliness, including dusty rooms, dirty curtains and bathroom fittings in need of repair, are noted. Uncovered garages and a lack of hygiene products like shower gel and soap further detract from the overall experience.
More attention to modernization and thorough cleaning could significantly boost guest satisfaction, aligning the hotel’s facilities with its otherwise commendable service and practical room features.
Beds
Cleanliness
However, there are a few areas of concern raised by some guests. Instances of dirty sheets, bathtubs and balconies have been mentioned with guests occasionally encountering hair on pillows and dirty pad covers and bedspreads. Moreover, some reviewers point out poor cleaning and maintenance of the facilities, as well as specific issues with the cleanliness of showers and overall terrible cleanliness in some cases.
Despite these occasional drawbacks, the predominant sentiment among reviews underscores the Areosa hotel's commitment to cleanliness, making it a generally pleasant choice for travelers prioritizing a tidy and comfortable stay.
