We were lucky to stay in Sofia appartment in Porto as she started to share her appartment only very recently. The appartment is very well located for those who want to visit Porto and its neighbouring cities beeing few meters from the river bank where most restaurants are located and 10 minutes walking from train station and 15 from rede expressos bus terminal. Any city touristic objective can be reached from there on foot in less than 20 minutes.
The appartment is situated on a pedestrian street so there is no noise during night.
Even if in the area the houses appear to have small rooms, Sofia has a big appartment for 4 people.
The appartment is realy very nice decorated with portugese rustic furniture and you can find everithing you need, inclouding for example towels and a hairdryer.
Bed is very confortable to sleep, there is hot water, fridge, washing machine, microwaves, fast wireless internet, a table with 4 chairs and a sofa where other 2 people/children can sleep.
Sofia is nice and ready to provide any information and help.
Near the appartment it is a small park where we met Sofia and from there she guided us to the appartment in less than one minute which you will find a good option as the adress of the appartment is not enough to understand where the appartment is located exactly as there is no Google street view on that short narrow pedestrian street and no numbers on the walls neither.
As we came quite late, she waited us with a botle of water, croisants with jam and milk with chocolate for childrens and even a botle of wine for us.
Porto is a nice town to visit, we liked it more than Lisbon even if there are less touristic objectives, but the town atmosphere is very nice with many narrow streets and with the river that is much better put into value than in Lisboa.
Therefore, as the Sofia apartment is realy near the river and very close to the bridge from where you can have one of the best views and promenade, its to my mind the best option that we were able to find in Porto.
