This is absolutely a crock of you know what: :beat:

"In a city replete with soulless chains and hostels, the attention to detail and standout cuisine at this tastefully decorated spot make it memorable. ELISA MALA"


I don't want to get into it with another writer, but anyone who has been to Porto for more than a second, knows that there are very very few chains. There is one Holiday Inn and an Intercontinental Hotel within a brief taxi ride or decent walk from Port lodges but that is it. There are TONS of places like the one in this article. Not to be negative, because any article/focus that helps boost tourism is a good thing, but at least writers, (pro or aspiring journo) should pay enough attention to get the details close to being accurate.

Rant over!
