Do not Stay in this Property
This is not a hotel but instead, and to our surprise, a vacation rental. It is not outfitted as an extended rental. Kitchen utensils are very, very basic. Additionally, there are no grocery stores of any account in the area. DO NOT rent if you plan to make any meals beyond cereal/toast for breakfast or maybe cold sandwiches for lunch.
Before check-in, we weren't successful validating our identities electronically. The hotel has changed management since we booked it and we couldn't reach the new manager to clear up the problem by the telephone number on the confirmation.
Because we couldn't be validated, Authentic Porto House wanted a security deposit.
I refused to pay and Authentic Porto House relented.
I have arrived home and Authentic Porto House has sent a 41,00 Euro email invoice for cleaning. Of course I'm not going to pay it.
The accommodation was paid in full before we were given access.
Do not use this hotel.
