Great communication from the hosts. Really well decorated apartment - very high standard. Highlights: huge comfortable double bed, great shower, great cooking facilities, comfortable sofa and nice big TV.

The apartment is very near Sao Bento train station. This made it very easy to take trains to the beach and to the Douro Valley. The walk to Gaia (to visit the Port Houses) was very pleasant. The location of the apartment is very good, a perfect place to start each day.

We highly recommend it. The hosts made us feel extremely welcome in their incredible city - so did all the other Portuguese people we met!
