Myo Design House

I spent 3 nights at the Myo Design House in late April and was glad to do so! The location was absolutely unbeatable. My apartment was spacious, well appointed, and comfortable. I greatly appreciated the patience and perseverance of Pedro and his staff in reaching out to me to ensure that I was welcomed in a timely way and in facilitating transport to the airport. And kudos to Tita of their breakfast service – she provided a very nice array of options in each day’s basket and was readily available for negotiation. A small thing: I wouldn’t call the Myo Design House a B & B. I’d call it an apartment.

We stayed in the rooftop apartment for 3 nights in Porto and loved it. Very spacious, beautiful bathroom, quiet sleeping area and comfortable bed, and an unbeatable central location for shopping, eating and seeing the sites. I highly recommend this property!

I had a trip planned to Porto and a reservation at this property. They charged a prepayment of the full amount. My flight was cancelled today, and I contacted the hotel twice via the phone and the person I spoke to (Michael) was kind and sympathetic and suggested I change the dates which was technically still allowed under the terms of my reservation. I tried changing the dates once: the hotel rejected the request, their explanation was that the dates were too far out. I called and asked for an explanation again and they (i.e. Michael) were apologetic again, and said to apply for other dates. I then got another response from the owner Pedro saying that it wasn't his fault that the flight was cancelled and that they would not accept any date change or issue any refund. Know this before you book this property: they don't care about customers. All they care about is taking your money.

Brilliant apartment on one of the prettiest streets in Porto old town. We loved our 4 nights there. The apartment was perfect for us, bedroom bathroom and lounge diner were all tasteful and clean. Very much enjoyed the live music in the street too! Pedro was a great host, no hesitation in recommending you stay here!

Such a great location in the heart of the historic district ! Clean, new, light and bright and 2 balconies. Definitely stay here!

The location is unbeatable. It is right in the center of the historical district of Porto. Easy walking distance to major tourist attraction sites. Right on the street where restaurants and shops are around. The apartment is well insulated and quiet. We utterly enjoyed our stay.

Extremely friendly reception from Pedro and his brother. Sofa bed was not made up as requested, but was done whilst my son and I went out for a drink, and this was nearly midnight ! Welcome bottle of water, biscuits, and small bottle of wine. Spacious apartment, balcony, and well appointed bathroom. Staircase to apartment stunning, but lift if required.

The details about the apartment were mis-leading. I booked and paid for an apartment with a 'balcony' over an 'internal courtyard' and 'landmark views' none of which were present. The 'balcony' was at the back, outside the bedroom, over a space that appeared to conceal services below - there were flies buzzing above it permanently. There was no courtyard. There were no views. This tarnished what was otherwise a positive experience in a nice, quiet apartment.
