The apartment is very centrally located, just a few minutes walk from the river, the metro, and local shops and restaurants. While other reviews comment on feeling unsafe on the street, those who hang out are harmless, we felt perfectly safe! The one downside to the apartment is that the windows are not very well insulated, so it can be a bit chilly, and noise on the street can you wake you up quite early. Despite this, I would totally recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Porto.
