Paula's apartment was a dream. She was very easy to communicate with, and was waiting for us at the apartment when we arrived. She gave us a thorough introduction to the neighborhood, and checked in on us during the trip to make sure everything was okay.
The apartment is in a clean and well-kept building, and has a spectacular terrace with an excellent view of the sea. Perfect for short or long trips. Foz do Douro is a posh, laid back neighborhood by the sea, filled with little cafes and nice stores. Central Porto is easily reachable by public bus, and the trip takes about 20 minutes - the bus route runs along the coast road for spectacular views any time of day. Thanks again - it was perfect.
