The apartment is located right where everything happens in Vila Nova de Gaia. The acoustic isolation is exceptional and you can’t hear any noise from outside; however, parking is a nightmare. It will cost $18/day to leave the car on the street if you are luck enough to find a place to park. There’s also a parking garage nearby that seems to always be full. Access to Porto is easy and quick. The restaurant right below is a great option to eat, with modest prices and generous portions. The apartment is spacious, but you can see a few signs of high booking throughout. We had a couple of hiccups with the apt. but management was quick to resolve the issues and communication was easy and professional.
