This apartment is in a great location in Porto. All of old town is accessible by foot, and it is a short walk to the river. There are plenty of restaurants nearby as well, including a couple directly across the street. There is a bakery across the street that is to die for! I was a solo female traveler on this trip and felt very safe. If you have any mobility issues, have tons of heavy luggage, or get easily winded, this apartment is not for you. The steps are steep and there are very many; it says it in the listing though, so be prepared for that. It wasn’t an issue for me because I pack pretty light. There is a good bit of street noise that can be heard inside the apartment at all hours and there is no tv or anything to drown it out. I can sleep through just about anything, so it didn’t bother me. If you’re sensitive to noise, I think some earplugs or headphones would do just fine. Overall, for the price, the location was great, the apartment was nice, and I would stay again!
