We has a wonderful time in Porto. My brother and his girlfriend arrived first, Elvira allowed them to leave their bags early and provided some port wine and snacks. They said she was very nice, although I never met her. We arrived late as our flight was delayed and we had been traveling for over 24 hours. We were very tired and had a bit of a hard time finding the place as our cab dropped us off on the wrong side, the neighbors were very friendly and helped us find it. The apartment was very cute and clean, perfect for 4 people. It definitely gave you the feeling of living in Porto, with the streets decorated for an upcoming festival and lots of potted plants and local children and pets enjoying the nice weather outdoors. The location was perfect, easy to walk to the river, as well as the town center. My only complaint would be that it was so hot, but they were getting air conditioning installed the day we left! I would definitely recommend this apartment! Great location and value for the price.
