Carla was there when we arrive and she gave us some information about the area (buses, restaurants, malls, beach...) and show us how to get to Porto. We went there by car and it's quite easy to find free parking there. Anyway the bus stop to go to Porto is quite close.
The apartment was really good, even better than we expected :) It was full equiped, very clean and a little bit cool at nights (but it had more than enough blankets :) )
We really recomend this apartment if you want to be in a quiet area not inside Porto city. Good both for a family or a group of friends.
