Stay Hotel Porto Aeroporto
Stayed one night since it was about 10-15 walk to the airport. Good clean hotel. Quiet. All the amenities including a mini balcony to get some fresh air. One thing I couldn’t work was the TV but they have working WiFi so no bother. Breakfast was continental nothing special for the price but cheaper ...
