Centrally located with easy access to transport links, this apartment was spotlessly clean, spacious, well equipped and exceeded our expectations. The hosts, Filomena and Ana provided extensive information to assist our stay and were accomodating without being intrusive. If ever staying in Porto again would definitely stay here.

Our host, Filomena, was great. Communications in advance of arrival were timely and informative and she met us on arrival and thoroughky briefed us on the flat, including pointing out key landmarks from the balcony. The flat itself was great. It was kitted out better than all other VRBOs we had previously rented and everything was great quality. Will definitely stay here (if available) on our next trip to Porto.

Great location and layout

Great location for walking around the city. Filomena was a great host, meeting us when we checked in, and giving us several recommendations for sightseeing as well as meals. The layout was perfect for 3 of us with a sizeable living room.

Filomena was an amazing host. We did have a little trouble with our GPS and she stayed in contact til we found her. The apartment was exactly as shown and was so comfortable and homey. The location was good with access to parking, restaurants, groceries...everything we needed for our stay in Porto!! It was actually our first experience renting a VRBO property and it will not be our last.

Well placed appartement in center of Porto

Filomena's appartment is very quiet and offer enough place for 6 people. We were in Porto my 4 people family and 2 friends. From the window you have a beautiful view of Porto building. Placed at 150 m of main metro station Trindad and not far of the main spots to visit the localisation was excellent. Restaurant and shops are just arround.

Great stay in Porto!

Filomena and her team were great! After a couple travel delays, Claudia met us at the apartment late at night. She took her time showing us around the space and giving us suggestions on restaurants etc. Knowing we were delayed, they even left some food and wine for us to have. Thanks for the perfect home base in Porto!

First class hosting..

The apartment is light and area and easily provided living space for our party of 3.All amenities where available and I'm sure meals could be self prepared if that's what you like.The main drawback was the constant noise being emitted from the bathroom vent

Porto Holiday

Centrally located very spacious apartment. Very bright with lots of windows. One should know there are 3 flights of stairs so something to think about if you are disabled in any way. Porto is a city of stairs and hills so you can’t avoid it. Lots of restaurants and coffee shops in the area and a great little fruit and veg store beneath the condo.We were welcomed and given lots of info upon arrival. Great stay.

A beautiful flat in a very convenient location

An excellent stay in a beautiful, comfortable, and very clean flat. We were met at Trindade station by Filomena's friend who took us to the flat and who showed us everything. The location could not be more convenient, very easy walking distance from Trindade metro station, a direction connection to the Airport and to Campanha station. While the 'sights' could easily be reached on foot, the neighbourhood felt real, with local shops and restaurants very close. Thank you!
