Guests frequently praise the spacious and clean rooms at Acta The Avenue, often mentioning the modern showers and well-equipped bathrooms. Its location proves convenient, with the metro and downtown within easy reach; the Bolhao Market Hall is about 15 minutes away.

superb stay
coffee machine quality toiletries safe box
i was impressed with the room's coffee machine. the toiletries provided were high quality. the safe box available in the room gave me a peace of mind, the breakfast provided a sufficient variety. the room was very clean, and i appreciated the modern design. the bathroom cleanliness was amazing.
The room was very comfy and tidy. Staff were really friendly and helpful at all times. Breakfast included many options for all tastes.
The rooftop terrace was closed . Cushions were saturated from rains. There was a need to walk through a 'red light' area to get to the centre.
