We had a great time at this apartment. Unfortunately, the central heating was malfunctioning our first evening. Carla and Manuel did everything they could to fix this as soon as possible and it was fixed eventually. The apartment is spacious, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is plenty of storage space. The kitchen is well equipped.
About the location: to reach Porto by train takes about 40 minutes. The beach and a station are at walking distance. This place is an ideal base to explore Portugal. We have visited Braga, Guimarães, Viana do Castelo, Aveiro and of course Porto from here.
Communication with the host went smooth and fast.
