We stayed in Mario's loft for 3 nights and it was exactly as described! A stylish apartment, very roomy and equipped with everything we needed! There even was coffee and tea for us and Mario had left a map and suggestions of things to see and places to visit! The place was clean and had good wifi. Mario's directions were clear and helpful. The location of the apartment is central and within walking distance of everything. The breakfast provided was a nice touch and the restaurant was located conveniently. We would stay there again without a doubt and highly recommend it. Before we left, we made sure to visit the restaurant below the apartment called Porto Meu. It had just opened a couple of days before and the owners are kind and generous. We had a great time there on our last night!

Note to families traveling with young kids: Porto is a very festive city and the apartment is located at the heart of the party! For that reason, I would suggest a quieter neighborhood if you have young kids and visiting over the week-end as it can get loud especially late at night.
