The apartment was well equipped and served as a good base for exploring Porto. The three of us each had our own bedroom and full bath. We appreciated the responsiveness of the host and the welcome bottle of port was a treat!It is a little out of the way so we took Ubers around but they are very plentiful and affordable.

Je vous remercie pour votre appréciation. Je suis toujours ravie d'offrir une petite bouteille de Porto à mes visiteurs. S'il est vrai que la maison est un peu excentrée du centre historique, il n'en est pas moins agréable de rentrer dans une maison plus au calme et loin du tumulte du centre ville après toute une journée de visite. J'espère que vous avez apprécié votre séjour et les nombreux endroits magnifiques visitables sur Porto.

Amazing accomodations!

We had six adults in our stay and we all loved it! Close to grocery stores, cafes, restaurants and cute shops. The Metro station is only a short walk away to take anywhere so that made travelling super easy. It made our adventure perfect for our first trip to Porto and Portugal. Absolutely beautiful.
