Without a doubt, this is the best Airbnb in Portugal! The beautiful apartment itself is immaculately clean, comfortable, and well appointed. It also has a fantastic location that is walking distance to many things in Porto. However, what makes this Airbnb shine leagues above the rest in particular are the people! They were all top-class in hospitality. First, Paula patiently waited to hand off the key outside the apartment when we had train delays. When we first entered, there was fresh fruit and ready-to-be-made coffee. The next morning, we had the free breakfast at their market across the street. Claudia made a beautiful breakfast of assorted breads, ham and cheese, coffee, freshly squeezed orange juice, and yogurt with honey and granola. The window view of Porto table side was beautiful. Because we would be leaving early in the morning, we wouldn’t have been able to make the free breakfast the next morning - when I asked Claudia about that, she delivered the most beautiful wooden crate filled with breakfast foods and beverages to our apartment later that we could enjoy ourselves the next morning before the flight.
Liana had been my first contact on Airbnb and she communicated clearly and thoroughly. Upon request, she booked a driver for our morning return flight to Boston (a good price of 25 euros). Tiago was the driving supervisor that I was in contact with, and he kindly was flexible with the pickup time. Jose the driver was punctual to the minute and arrived in a large, clean van- he was really nice. The people that run this location are a well-oiled machine. Everything about this stay, down to even the smallest details, was perfectly delivered with care and professionalism!
