The location of this apartment is fantastic. The coolest cafes and restaurants in Porto are just around the corner or down the street. I stayed here for 4 weeks and had weekly cleaning which was fantastic. Communication was excellent. Weeknights were quiet, on the weekend evenings you can hear people talking loudly as they pass on the street but this is the case for much of the center and that’s where I wanted to be, and where I’d recommend my friends to stay. The downstairs is compact but plenty for 1 or 2 people to eat and watch tv. The upstairs is brighter and I found it nicer to work up there at the desk with the large windows and bigger room. The lower level is ground level so you will see people walking past I appreciated not having to climb many stairs with my large bags. Other things I liked: there’s a pastelaria at the end of the street, Porto’s best coffee nearby (Fabrica and SO) and great vibe at Nicolau cafe and many other cafes and bars in the area.
