This apartment was very unique in layout haha, but perfect for our short, yet busy visit to Porto (we are a couple in our 30s; I am not sure if this place would be ideal for a family with children). While we happened to stay on the exact dates and location of the Mimo music festival, the rear-facing apartment blocked us from the noise when we were ready for bed - yet we still had the convenience of the attractions just outside our door. Overall, the location was perfect to explore the historic district by foot. We did have a rental car, and the parking garage just below couldn't have been more convenient. The self check-in was seamless, a major plus for travellers like us (who can never seem to stick to a schedule). The apartment's amentities went to good use, including the washer (invaluable during a long trip), the list of local restaurant recommendations, AND the complimentary port. If you are planning a Duoro tour, this location is easy to arrange pickup, just be sure to use the GPS-friendly address provided. And enjoy!
