Fantastic location, excellent communication with the host, Luis, and beautiful views. Luis also met us at the metro and escorted us to the apartment which was most appreciated.
Apartment was clean and the bed comfortable. However, there was a lack of attention to detail – thin, grey towels, flat pillows on the bed, no suitable wine glasses, clothesline needed repair. (These could be fixed easily and inexpensively). Disco shower floor looked dirty but it was due to poor repair work. No air-con and minimal portable heating.
Different apartment set-up. The apartment is split in two by a communal staircase with lockable doors each side of the landing. You need to prioritise - if you are happy to live like a Porto local in a fabulous location and can handle a small lack of privacy then this is your place. But if you want privacy then look elsewhere.
