Laura was a wonderful host - the rest of the reviews are spot on. She was incredibly helpful with providing tips and recommendations for places to go both in Porto and even in the Douro Valley. Her responses were always thoughtful and detailed. She greeted us at the home with fresh vegetables and eggs from her garden, and was very warm and welcoming. The home is in a great location and had everything we needed. She provided a great experience for our trip and we are lucky to have stayed in her apartment. Definitely recommend and would stay again.
