Although we haven't seen Maria herself, she made us feel welcome with a nice cake and reception by her friend.

The apartment itself was very nice. It was clean, equipped with all the necessities you need, nicely decorated and well situated to all the nice things Porto has to offer.

Downside to the place were the bars in front of the building; it can get a bit noisy, especially when you want the windows open for fresh air or cooling. At night, the apartment also gets a bit warm.

Perfect for young couples who don't go to bed too early.
