We spent a wonderful week in Porto staying at Ines beautiful apartment. It is located in a very calm area. But it takes 15 minutes only to walk to the city center. From the main window you have an incredible view to the river and to the Atlantic Ocean. It is a 40 minutes walk along the river to one of the city beaches. If you take the bus it takes 15 minutes only. We highly recommend to take a walk through the crystal garden. Ines is a great host. Very friendly and helpful during our stay.
