Miriam and Marcelo's Airbnb exceeded my expectation. The location is fantastic - a quick walk to the historic waterfront (15 mins), 3 mins from the main train station, 5 mins to the historic market, with fantastic foods, wine, and traditional pottery and embroidery and is located in the middle of an interesting neighborhood. I would stay at this location again.
If you have not been to Porto - it is a super walkable city.
The Airbnb space was stylishly decorated, and the locks on the building door and apartment door were top-notch. It appears professionals live in the building so it was very quiet. The layout allowed space to relax, work, cook and sleep. All items in the apartment were of a lovely quality. Also within feet of the apartment, there is a laundry mat, 2 cafes, and many restaurants.
Porto is stellar at collecting trash - it appears they come 6 days a week. If you are a light sleeper the trash dumpster is feet from the apartment; the collectors with their truck were there at 4:30 am every morning. They were gone within 5 mins but this might bother some - it was no big deal for me. I had noted a few previous reviews mentioned construction noise but we heard no construction during our stay.
Marcelo checked us in and walked through the amenities of the space - including a fun little cocktail ready for our enjoyment if we were interested. This personal touch of checking us in and the walk through was super helpful and greatly appreciated.
