This is the perfect location for a stay in Porto! The apartment is close enough to walk to all the old city attractions, but far enough away from touristy commotions to be restful. The river Douro is a site in itself. It’s a short UBER ride to the beaches, the FC Porto stadium, and the airport. We did not experience the other transportation modalities ( metro, buses, or trains) but all were very conveniently accessible. You must not miss visiting the train station regardless as it’s magnificent to see. The apartment is conveniently located to shopping and grocery markets. The construction of the old city apartments are not soundproof, so don’t be surprised if you hear the pitter patter of little feet through your ceiling, the crow of a rooster every morning, or the barking of your neighbors’ dogs. It’s part of the charm. If you are bothered by these things, this may not be the place for you. Our host was super responsive to a short power outage and an emergency faucet issue during our stay. Francisco also checked in to make sure we had what we needed. We stayed here for 77 days and thought it was an excellent choice for our first ( but not last) trip to Porto!
