Great apartment in a great location. Marc was easy to deal with and understanding about an airport delay, causing us to arrive late. Plenty of walkable restaurants, shops, and close to the bridge to Gaia. The elevator and the air-conditioning were wonderful.

Could not get better location. The apartment had plenty of living space and nice to have 2 bathrooms. If I would like anything different it would be extra towels and a change of bedding when there for 10 days. Maybe this is normal so definitely not a complaint just a suggestion. The location was absolutely perfect for everything. Lots of places to eat but be sure to check out side streets for best deal. Lots of music on the streets and always lots of people out. Also lots of tourist spots in the streets to book tours. We used Living Tours and very happy with them. Host was always available to answer any questions quickly. Great vacation

An amazing apartment to explore with my family of five in the heart of Porto! It was clean, spacious and the location was in the middle of shops, grocery stores, restaurants, and just a couple of blocks away from the river. Mark was quick to respond to any questions and Fernanda was extremely patient and helpful with our check-in. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We had a great stay here. The location was fantastic for Porto. We were just steps from the river and a 15 minute walk to the best Port tastings around. Visiting the churches and shopping was only a 10-15 minute walk in the other direction. The check in process was very smooth and efficient. The room was also clean and accessible. We would happily stay here again.

This was one of my favorite VRBO rentals for many reasons. The apartment was beautifully decorated, clean, in a great location, and air conditioned. I loved the European charm of the space and the location truly was perfect for exploring Porto. The host was easy to work with and everything went incredibly smooth. This property is a hidden gem and I would stay here again.

The location of this property was excellent. The things we did not like were, the wood floor was not very clean, the blue throw rug in the living room was filthy, the unit advertised a BBQ grill and non could be found and lastly, the refrigerator did not have even a small freezer section to make ice.

Thanks Ray ! BBQ was never advertised probably a mistake making a confusion with any other unit in Portugal.

Lovely apartment, in a perfect location close to everything you want in Porto. It's really a two bedroom property, the third bed is on a mezzanine above the bathroom and kitchen but was fine for me. The two actual bedrooms are lovely, apparently, I always get the worst bed. If you only need two beds then it's perfect, if you need three be aware the 3rd is a mezzanine and basically in the living area. No complaints at all though and would definitely recommend
