The location is as good as it gets in Porto....it is a really great place to walk to anywhere you want to go in the city. Be sure that you are clear about the size of the place. It is quite small, but I was really only in my room to sleep and that was about it. The rest of the time I was out exploring Porto. If for any reason you plan to spend a lot of time in the apartment, I think it would feel very cramped. For me, it was perfect.
