My friend and I absolutely loved Hugo's house. First of all, Hugo's mother are very considerate, kind and always helpful. I really liked her warmhearted hospitality. She is the most wonderful host I've ever met. Hugo is also very responsive to my message.
I stayed at Hugo's place for four weeks. The space is accurately represented in the photographs, and even better. The Kitchen was great with everything I needed and the Nespresso machine was a wonderful touch. The beds were very comfortable and warm with nice linens and I slept well every night. Heaters and washing machine was very useful because of my long stay. I really liked the location as well. Santa Catarina street, which is major shopping street, is one-minute away so I felt safe when I came back late because most shops at Santa Catarina opens until 9 p.p. so there were quite a lot of people at the street, but Hugo's place is always quite and peaceful. Public transportation and big supermarkets(Pingo doce and Continente), cafes, ice cream shops, restaurants and etc are also very close. It is very easy to shop around as well. I almost always went to Porto's main attractions on foot and Sao Bento station is less than ten minutes away so it is easy to visit other cities near Porto. Anyway, I enjoyed my stay to the fullest and I highly recommend Hugo's place! It was really home away from home for me.
