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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!!!

Amazing location with beautiful city views! The apartment was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. We used Bounce to store our luggage nearby while waiting to check in, which worked perfectly. The neighborhood was charming, and we could easily walk everywhere from this prime spot. The AC kept the place nice and cool. Highly recommend staying here!

Fantastic central location, walk to everything. Host communication was great, was met at property on arrival. Fourth floor with lift that goes to third only, so keep in mind you will need to climb a flight of stairs to apartment. Overall, had an amazing stay would recommend.
