Nice apartment, recently renovated, like brand new. It's a bit cold (like heartless), but everything is clean and tidy.
Furniture is essential. A few things are missing:
- a washing machine (as far as I can tell, despite being advertised)
- a proper heating system (as it turned out, in June it can be cold in Porto); a portable heater is provided, which actually does its job very well, but you need to carry it with you around the house
Location wise, it's a bit far from the city center but close to the metro station (and then it's a 20 minutes ride).
I didn't meet the host in person. He seems to have managed to automate everything, checkin included. But I texted him on whatsapp, and he replied promptly.
Security wise, I didn't feel too much secure. The door at the entrance of the building is pretty thin, and it seems to be made only of plastic: it feels like anyone could break in fairly easily. And the area looks a bit dodgy (at least that was my feeling, I may be wrong).
Anyway, all in all, it was a pleasant stay.
