The Vrbo site does not give a complete address. The block of flats has no sign out front saying anything about House of the Cathedral. Find no39 and it is apartment 4a . Otherwise everything else was perfect.

Great location, great hosts!

It was our first time in Portugal and our host, Raquel, was very sweet and helpful. She provided information on local places - markets and restaurants - and was very responsive to questions and requests. The place is ideally located to sights and restaurants but yet quiet at night. The place was super cute and the beds were very comfortable. I must say that with all of our luggage, the elevator was key! I'd stay there again!

Location, Location!

This was a delightful apartment in a great location, near the cathedral and easy walking distance to good supermarkets, excellent restaurants, and other attractions. Nuno's wife, Raquel, met me at the front door, introduced me to the vintage elevator, and showed me through the premises. During my stay, she was very responsive if I had questions. The apartment was nicely furnished, well equipped, and had a very comfortable bed.Just one caveat: the elevator has a mind of its own and twice went on strike during my visit. So this is probably not a good choice for anyone who absolutely can't climb stairs.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans l'appartement de Nuno et Raquel qui dispose de tout le confort et qui est très bien équipé pour cuisiner. L'appartement est situé près de la gare de Sao Bento ce qui permet d'aller facilement à la plage et visiter Guimaraes, Braga, Vila do Conde, Aveiro. Bref le lieu idéal pour découvrir Porto et sa région.

Super Wohnung in zentralen Lage

Die Wohnung ist in der direkten Nachbarschaft von der Kathedrale Sé und dem Bahnhof, liegt also zentral, ist trotzdem sehr ruhig. Es ist sehr sauber, Küche und Bad ist mit alles Notwendigen ausgestattet. Im Kühlschrank haben wir sogar Getränke vorgefunden. Die Übergabe war unkompliziert, die Gastgeber sind eine nette Kontakt. Nochmals Danke Raquel und Nuno!

Great Hosts. Great Location.

Nuno & Raquel greeted us at the front door and made sure we were comfortable with the apartment. They were very helpful. Apartment location was very central, yet very quiet at night when the windows and shutters were closed.

Superb Apartment

Great apartment right in the historical centre of Porto. Nuno met us as organised and showed us around the apartment and gave some recommendations of restaurants. Even though it was right in the centre of Porto the double glazing meant that we got no noise and had a very restful stay.
