Excellent property in a fantastic location. Very quiet at night for sleeping, but right in the middle of great restaurants, the river area, SAO Bento train station, etc. Very enjoyable experience overall.

Our trip started great with our host, Fernanda, warmly welcoming us to the apartment. She met us when we arrived, showed us all the amenities, and explained everything very clearly. She was also incredibly accommodating with an early check-in, which we really appreciated. Fernanda was wonderful to deal with and made us feel welcome right from the start.The location was absolutely fantastic. It was just an easy stroll to the Douro River, where the river cruise boats depart, and there were so many great options nearby for dinner, drinks, and enjoying the riverfront. There were also plenty of restaurants just minutes away on foot.The location made exploring Porto incredibly easy and enjoyable, with all the major landmarks within walking distance. The apartment itself was very comfortable, with excellent air conditioning and a large common living area that was perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing.The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were great. The only minor issue was that the second bedroom was quite small, which made accessing and storing luggage a little difficult.Overall, we loved our stay. The combination of the fantastic location, comfortable apartment, and especially Fernanda’s hospitality made our trip to Porto an unforgettable experience !

In the heart of Porto, walk to the sites nearby and a short walk to the waterfront! You don’t need a vehicle. This was an amazing location and everything in the condo was as described, even got a nice bottle of wine on our arrival.

This was wonderful place to stay. Very clean, well stocked with air conditioning. The location is perfect. Close to the river, the boardwalk where there is entertainment, food and drinks. Also close to major sightseeing places, train terminals etc. Communication was great and they were very accommodating when we had a delayed flight. When our coffee perk failed to work we had a new one within an hour or two. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it.

Excellent and comfortable apartment in a fabulous location. Marc was great to deal with and very prompt to respond. The apartment was well equipped for a short stay. We didn't cook as there were so many lovely restaurants on our doorstep. We walked to all the major sites - there is definitely no need for a car here. I would recommend this apartment and next time I visit Porto, I will book to stay here again.

The location of this apartment is fantastic. It is in the heart of a very cool neighborhood and close to the Sao Bento train station and Dom Luis bridge. It was very clean and had what we needed. We didn't cook much in the apt but we heated up some empanadas from a local shop and are on the balcony while the sun set. Beautiful!

Perfect location, nice apartment, kitchen is well equipped. Communication is good. Castro for coffee and pastel del nata is right on the corner. Two improvements: it’s a pity we had to pay an extra 70 for a late check in (23.00 hrs). Not really necessary with the price you already pay. Secondly: the last three steps on the stairs if you walk down miss an anti-slip stripe. Can be dangerous if you miss the step. Overall we had a lovely stay.

This apartment is beautiful! It has everything you need for a wonderful stay in Porto. It is spacious, clean, lots of items for use in the kitchen, a beautiful deck with patio furniture close to the historic city centre and amazing views of the city. Marc was great to deal with. He kept in great communication with me throughout the entire booking process. Check-in was very easy and the process allowed us time to check in quickly and hit the streets of beautiful Porto. I highly recommend this charming apartment in Porto!!!

Wonderful location, and the apartment is really comfortable and light-filled. Stayed here with a friend and we both found it very roomy for 2. The living room/great room is super with a neat balcony and great view of the city. You can't ask for a better location. Everything is immediately at your footsteps. And the apartment is super quiet as you're on the top floor and windows make it quite sound proof. Marc was a very good host, communicating about check-in times, etc. He was very easy to reach. Only suggestion -- add a luggage rack in each room so you don't have to rummage through your bag at floor level. And, add a few hooks in the bathroom. Otherwise, it's perfect.
