We just finished up a 3 night stay at Jose's beautiful apartment. The communication and check in experience was top notch. Joao met us at the apartment and gave us a tour, some local knowledge and a bottle of port. The apartment was stunning, it was a good size for 5 people and it was well appointed with all of the things we needed to have a comfortable stay. We though that the location was amazing, we were in a beautiful area surrounded by some stunning hotels and we were walking distance to all of the best sight seeing. The train station was a few mins walking which was very handy as we took the train to the Douro wine region and when we left to Lisbon it was a very short walk with our luggage to the train. The old town and river was also very close, we couldn't have been happier with this place. The hosts were friendly and accommodating, would highly recommend.
