Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Editory Artist Baixa Porto Hotel is often praised for its spacious rooms and bathrooms, many featuring a hospitality tray and comfortable beds. The hotel, a former art school, showcases beautiful decor throughout, although some guests have noted the carpet could use a deep clean. The location, while quiet with a lovely garden, is about a 10-minute walk to the center of Porto; some guests appreciated the excellent breakfast with lots of choices, while others found the coffee from the machine to be of poor quality.
