We stayed at Jorge’s apartment “Garden House” for five nights, it is very clean and comfortable, it is just as it appears in the photographs, the garden is absolutely beautiful and can be seen from every room, we enjoyed sitting outside having lunch, and it was very nice. Communicating with Jorge was very good, he responded to our queries in a timely and informative manner, there was always someone available should we needed any assistance.
The apartment was beautifully cleaned, there was more than enough room for our stay, and it is in a fantastic location, just a few minutes’ walk to some of the city’s major tourist attractions, with local supermarket, butchers and restaurants very near the house. It was terrific having the car safely parked, with the garage easily accessible straight off the street. We were met on arrival by Isabel, she introduced us to the amazing apartment, and she was very kind with her time, giving us some great tips of attractions in Porto to visit and also where to eat locally. Jorge was very generous welcoming us with wine, port and chocolates, the kitchen is well equipped and I enjoyed cooking meals here. I really appreciated the Nespresso machine and so glad I brought my pods.
Porto is a gorgeous city, we were sad to leave there is so much to do, we took Isabel’s recommendation to visit the Majestic Café, it is truly beautiful and the cakes and coffee were great too. There is also Uber in town, which we found to be good service and very affordable to use. We hope to return to Porto one day soon, hopefully Jorge’s apartment will be available when we do.
