Beta Porto Hotel: Not the best location but for the price....
Satisfaction:
By Supertalya on August 26, 2005
I should have done a little more research about hotels before booking this one. It is too far away from downtown Porto and the beaches but the bus system is really easy to navigate. The rooms were clean and the people behind the desk were nice enough. The first problem we had is that when we would return from the bars and discos at 3-4 am the hotel was locked and we would have to wait about 25 minutes for the desk attendent to open the door for us. It looked as if he had been sleeping. Then checking out was another issue. We prepaid our hotel online and I brought the receipt with me in check-in. When we checked out they had not received proof that we paid and I had already thrown away the receipt. So I had to take a bus to downtown Porto to find an internet cafe to print out a receipt. It took about an hour an a half. We also didn't receive any of our telephone messages when we were away. I even went to call and leave a message for myself to check and we still didn't get it.
The pool, jacuzzi, and spa were not open at the time that we went.
