We (= a 26-year old couple from Belgium) stayed at the "City Double View" appartment for 9 days and we must say that it was one of the best trips we ever had. That was not only due to the beautiful appartment, but also to the terrific host, Francisco. He made us feel welcome as of the first minute and really made an effort to show us the places-to-be in the beautiful city of Porto. Francisco's really the friendliest, warm-hearted host we have ever met (plus: his English is also splendid!).

The appartment itself is spacious, modern (but still cosy!) and has a fully equipped kitchen (there was even a juice maker => great for making mojitos!) and bathroom (with walk-in shower!). The location of the appartment is also perfect: it is nearby the old city center, as well as the Douro river, the bridge to Gaia (with its port cellars), etc. There's also a subway station at only 2 minutes walking distance.

And then, for us (and all other people who love to read in the sun and spend long summer evenings outside), the best thing to the appartment was the all-day long sunny balcony with the very comfortable lounge seats and great view over the city of Porto! If you like to relax after walking around the city, there's no better place than that balcony!

Summarized: we would strongly recommend this appartment to anyone! We feel that there could not be a better starting point to explore the city of Porto.
