This is an AMAZING apartment in Porto.
If you are fortunate enough to visit this city and have the option to rent this property, you should do it!
First, Ricardo is a great host. He picked up us at the airport and gave us a private tour of the property. He also provided us a nice bottle of Porto wine as a welcoming gift. Very nice touch of him. Furthermore, he gave us a map of the city with outstanding recommendations of places and restaurants to visit. He also gave us directions to the many attractions that Porto has to offer. Again, Ricardo is a fantastic host.
Second, the apartment.
This property is just beautiful. Its located in the center of the action: in front of the train station (but DO NOT worry, the flat is quiet and you will sleep like a baby) where you can take a train and travel to anywhere in Portugal.
The apartment is only 10 minutes walk to the famous Dom Luis Bridge, Palacio Da Bolsa, Clerigos tower, and the famous Livraria Lello (the one from the Harry Potter movie), plus there are many restaurants, tascas, pubs, and stores steps away from the apartment. The metro and bus station are also steps away from the flat. I believe that the location is perfect.
The apartment is located in the last floor of the building. It has a beautiful terrace with a small table and 2 chairs where you will be able to enjoy a fantastic view of the city. This is a very special feature of this flat. I enjoyed it!
The apartment looks new. Its stylish. Modern kitchen with fridge, full oven, microwave, washer machine. The living room with a large sofa and plasma TV and 2 small balconies. On this first floor you will also found a half bathroom for guests.
On the second floor you will have the master room with a queen bed, very comfortable. Plasma TV. Large bathroom. On this floor you will have the terrace that I was talking about. This master room is spacious but at the same time cozy and with the terrace. Simply amazing.
The WiFi signal was excellent.
Again, this is an incredible apartment. Ricardo is a fantastic host.
Do yourself a favor and book it if you have the chance. You will be happy that you did.
If I ever have the opportunity to come back to beautiful Porto, I will definitively stay here again.
