Sonia greeted us in person and took the time to explain everything in her apartment and also gave us many recommendations for places to visit in Porto and where to eat. She is an excellent host, quick to reply to emails and helpful as well.
The apartment is in an excellent location, about 50 metres from the waterfront in the heart of the historic centre of Porto. I don’t think you can get better than this for location. We found many delicious restaurants within close walking distance, one of them is literally 35 steps from the front door (we counted), and the bridge to get over to Vila Nova de Gaia is a few hundred metres away, for visiting the port houses.
The pictures of Sonia’s place do not do it justice, it is actually bigger than it looks and has everything we needed for a great trip. Thank you Sonia.
