The flat is situated in the eastern part of Porto next to a big and old graveyard (which is worth a walk). Around the flat you can find everything you need like a bakery, butcher's shop, restaurants and supermarkets. By foot it takes you 5 minutes along a road until you enter the inner city of Porto. Down to the center at the Douro you will need around 15 minutes. But you are walking down all the time and so it's very easy. A taxi back to the flat will cost around 5 to 6€ if you are too lazy to walk home after discovering all the hills of Porto.
Susana's flat is as expected very nice and cosy. She seems to have a passion for art and design and you can lose a day on the nice terrace by reading books and magazines from her private collection. The kitchen is fully equipped and very clean (like the rest of the apartment). On the terrace you have a wonderful view over the roofs of Porto and you can see the hills of the Douro valley.
There was not much to communicate but when we had a question or were getting in contact regarding the check in, we got an answer immediately. I can highly recommend this flat and will come back when I will be in Porto again.
