Unfortunately this was not our best Airbnb experience. Mainly because we found the bed extremely uncomfortable. The mattress wasn’t just hard as a rock but we could feel springs coming through. I was so uncomfortable that I ended up sleeping on the small sofa the second night. Also the bed is a queen not a double/king.
Pros:
- if you want to be in the heart of Porto, this is an excellent location, close to lots of shops, restaurants and the river.
- the building that the apartment is located in is beautifully remodeled.
- there’s a lift.
- the apartment itself is stylish, nicely decorated and the kitchen is well stocked.
Cons:
- horrible bed
- hosts are responsive to messages but not very accommodating to requests. I had requested a French press and blender, which to me are pretty standard. The hosts simply told they don’t have them and didn’t offer to get them, as many other hosts offer me.
- the parking garage the hosts referred us charged over 100€ for 2 nights parking!!
