If you haven't booked and are just thinking - don't look any further. Just book.
This so far has been one of the best places I have stayed in and the hospitality just puts it in the top place! First of all, the house itself as seen in picture. Very immaculate and modern. Got enough utensils and cutlery for 4 adults. Plenty of towels are provided. Shower is just immaculate and very lovely. There is no shortage of hot water unlike some other places. Smart TV is easy to use and its nice as you can access YouTube etc. Main bedroom is very spacious. The bed is great to sleep in, gives a good night sleep. The second is a sofa bed which was quite easy to assemble. You are given extra bedding and pillows etc for sofa bed. There is some lovely touches around the house which makes it feel homely. Moving onto check-in; very smooth and left with a great amount of information. Marco was unable to be there at the check-in but his lovely dad was there waiting for us. He showed us all around, explained everything from how to use the blinds/shutters to assembling the bed. Communication from Marco from booking to checking out was just brilliant. On the day we arrived, it was hotter than expected [33c] and it was a bit too hot for us :D For check-out, as our train was only in the evening, Marco was very kind to allow us to stay in the apartment couple of hours after said check out time.
I asked Marco if it was possible to have a fan as it was quite hot and on the same evening as we arrived; he came to the house with a brand new fan and fitted it right there and then. It was really sweet of him and we even had a great conversation :D
Thirdly, the location is brilliant. Everything is just in walking distance. The metro is very close to the house [Marco will give you all the details], under 5 mins walk. Everything else to see in Porto is within walking distance. You are near Dom Luis Bridge in just 15 mins and you can see all the major attractions along the way. There are maps left for you in the apartment. Finally, there is a major supermarket and eateries in 5 mins walking distance [called Via Catarina] Plenty of restaurants and bakeries nearby serving gorgeous pastel de nata :)
Thank you Marco for providing a great house :)
