We had a great time in Porto. The flat was generally as described, although the coffee machine didn't work. A place to hang up clothes would have been welcome too. But the bed was comfortable, the flat is well-situated, and generally in a very nice condition (beware the slightly leaky shower though). Overall, I would recommend this place, especially based on the ease of dealing with the company that runs it. Thomas met us at check-in and he was very friendly and very helpful.
but I wanted to offer some suggestions for the flat. First of all, I think you really do need to buy a coffee machine that works on the stove. The listing includes this in the amenities, and it is really standard by now. I think it's a little stingy that the owner has not replaced the one that doesn't work on the stove with one that does. Also, it would have been good to have a place to hang up clothes. There is only a little rack to hang up jackets. Last, the shower leaks--I think it is the sealant around the edge, meaning that water pools on the floor around the toilet. Otherwise, it was great hospitality and the flat was lovely. Thank you. Zoe
