Maria was hugely helpful - we arrived really late at night and she guided us through a painless check-in process which was so appreciated. She also sent us really useful tips for getting around town (calculated times from the flat) and seeing Porto’s tourist spots. There are plenty of eateries at within walking distance and we were sad not to be able to explore these more (many were closed due to the Covid-19 outbreak).
The flat is gorgeous and stylishly decorated and we really enjoyed staying there. Being right in the city also meant that we could hear seagulls screeching and cars driving down the cobbled path but it didn’t diminish the stay. On the upside, the day of the government lockdown due to the virus, a lady across the street played some wonderful music and got a few people dancing around on their balconies, including us!
A lovely touch was that Maria also checked in with us during the confusing and turbulent time of Covid-19 and made sure we felt safe. We are very grateful for this.
