The host was gracious and kind after our flight canceled and we couldn’t make it to Porto for a couple days. She went out of her way to help us check in and ensure we were comfortable.
We traveled with two children under 3 and having a crib for the baby was a very nice thing to have. He slept “like a baby” with the shutters that darkens the rooms. The apartment itself is fantastic. Everything is comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was VERY well stocked and if you’re a cooking kind of traveler, you won’t be missing anything in this kitchen. Huge plus for that!
The outdoor area is simply great. There’s a large table, comfortable chairs and big sunbrella in a very spacious area full of plants. Also includes a hammock.
The bedrooms have ample storage, the bathroom has shelves and counter space for toiletries, there are shelves and other furniture around the apartment that you can stash things up and out of toddlers reach.
We were in Porto in late September when the weather just turned cool and it was very pleasant to have the window open during the daytime to air out the place and have a cool breeze. At night, we closed everything up and it wasn’t cold inside. We didn’t use the heaters, no ac in the apartment as of 09/22.
The trash bins are right outside and across the street so it was easy to keep the place free of garbage. The street is quiet but fairly easy to get parking for a car if you have any.
Metro close by and a couple coffee/snack shops about 3-5 minute walk from the apartment.
Highly recommend this place to any traveler but especially to families that need a comfortable, reliable and easy space to rest.
Irene was the best. She was very communicative and I felt like she really cared about her guests. A+ host. When we come back to Porto, we will book here again if possible!
