André's place was the perfect place to stay for my time in Porto! Unfortunately, it was rainy the whole time I was there, but the apartment was not only so centrally located that I could stop in to dry off throughout the day, it gave the option of two umbrellas (a small and a large one). If I could give location a 6th star, I would. Rua des Flores has such a bustling local neighborhood vibe, with plenty of quality shops, cafes, and restaurants, and a quick walk to several tourist attractions.
Andrés was a wonderful host: very responsive, full of local tips (like how I could get a free train connection to Sao Bento and where to eat), quick and easy check in/out, and wifi code and snacks ready the moment I walked in. I wish I could have seen his beautiful place in the sunlight, but I was absolutely charmed by the spacious rooms on the rainy days as well.
Thank you again for your hospitality, Andrés! I'll happily stay at your place again the next time I'm in Porto!
