This is a very large and beautiful apartment and you should definitely stay here. It is in the town across the river from Porto and, even though the short distance looks walkable, it is a picturesque but uphill climb. Fortunately, the bus stops at the corner and will bring you right into Porto; just buy the tourist bus pass for the length of your stay. I only gave four stars because the listing states that the apartment is supplied with soaps and shampoo; however, when I arrived, there was nothing there. Not even dishwashing detergent. The staff at guest ready responded professionally and communicated well enough but let me know that the cleaning crew told them it was “not possible“ to supply me with the missing items. There were no dish towels, pot holders, or cleaning supplies either, and there was significant buildup on the glass stove top. The cost of purchasing these items is not significant, however it is inconvenient to purchase everything for every stay; especially when traveling from location to location. So I would confirm with guest ready when you book this apartment to make sure that it will be supplied with at least the basics. Other than that, the bed is very comfortable and there is a tiny store across the street to purchase water, but a slightly bigger store a few more yards down the street to the left when you exit the building. For a bigger shopping excursion the Pingo Doce is a half mile walk and mostly level.
