Pedro’s apartment has so many positives, excellent central location beside the Metro, modern design, well equipped kitchen, air conditioning & comfortable beds. It is very secure and has electric shutters with remote control. WiFi worked great too. The apartment has a dishwasher and a washing machine and separate dryer (which worked perfectly during our stay). Pedro who met us was very nice and made some suggestions on restaurants & things to do in Porto. We also really enjoyed the complimentary bottle of Port that Pedro left for us.
However I have two negatives:
1) while the bathroom is spacious and should be really great, the shower area needs urgent thorough cleaning to remove quite a lot of mould and needs to be professionally resealed around the bathtub.
2) the apartment was advertised as coming with essentials, soap & shampoo - there was none when we arrived. When I txted to asked for it to be provided I was called up by a lady (Maria?) who said I needed to buy it myself. I explained that it was advertised as being included as part of the rental. Then I receive an apology and was assured that it would be provided that evening. Unfortunately it wasn’t (ever) so we purchased some the next day.
Apart from these 2 issues this is a totally top notch apartment.
Overall we had a wonderful time in Porto. What a great city and can’t wait to go back.
