Paula's place is perfectly located for Porto exploration. It's just a minute's walk from all monuments, restaurants, shops, and the ribeira. It's Spacious enough for a family but was also quite nice for us as a couple. Everything was up to expectations and has all the necessary fixings. We spent most of our time in the bright living room with the double doors and windows thrown open. Keep in mind it IS very central though so there is street noise at night. There are excellent bars and restaurants on the block but they also bring some noise. This being said, the bedroom is towards the back of the building so it can also be mostly drowned out. Throw a fan on for some white noise and you're golden.
Paula, herself, is wonderful and was totally available by text and phone. We actually broke something in he shower and notified her because we felt bad. It was fixed before we returned from our day's activities! She really is a pro...
Anyway, we had a fantastic visit to Porto and to Paula's place... We recommend it!
