tl;dr: It was great and we recommend that apartment a lot!
We – a couple from germany – did several different trips to Porto in the past already. This trip should be a more relaxed one, and concerning the possibly bad weather, we searched for an apartment that would also fit if we had to stay inside for longer.
So we found this one and were already amazed by the pictures of it. First, it looks quite small and if you have been there you will see that it's hard to take good pictures that represent the beauty of that apartment good enough.
First things first. The apartment is brand new and very clean. The bathroom itself seems small but the shower is actually very big.
The mixture of kitchen and living room is very cozy. Although we didn't cook at all (there is a good reason, hang on), we enjoyed having a whole kitchen as we prepared breakfast and some other cold food.
However, the highlight of the apartment is the upper floor with its bed. Once you lie there, you can totally relax. It's hard to describe. The bed(room) is very cozy with everything painted white, indirect light and being directly under the roof.
When you arrive, you will be given some welcome presents and a brochure with a couple of advices for good restaurants and spots to visit. As we have been to Porto in the past, we already knew a lot of the hot spots but still found new ones worth a visit.
The best thing though were the recommended restaurants nearby. We didn't try all of them as we lacked time but the ones we tried were gorgeous. We especially recommend the Tábua Rasa and the Steakhouse nearby.
Besides that, the apartment is very well located near all the interesting spots, so whatever you are up to – sightseeing, dinner, shopping – everything is nearby.
We will try to come back as soon as possible!
