Miguel, Carlos' son, met us at the apartment, provided us with a map of Porto, explained the lay of the land, and gave us great tips for restaurants. The apartment is as pictured, spacious, clean, modern, and very comfortable. It was especially nice to have good counter space in the bathroom. The location is very convenient for access to the Old Town section of the city--the place to be in our opinion--an easy walk away. The neighborhood is very busy so having a parking spot was essential and appreciated. One thing to be aware of is that construction is going on next door so Mon-Sat morning, don't expect to sleep late.
