When we booked this apartment, we knew we were paying for the view - and it most certainly did not disappoint! The view of the city from your balcony is absolutely stunning. The apartment is located right underneath Jardim do Morro (a.k.a Sunset Hill) where hundreds flock to watch the sun go down each night. Luckily, the view for sunset from this apartment is just as good, if not better.
The apartment is also well located to access the center of Porto via the Luís I Bridge, however a word of warning there is a steep climb home involved if you are coming from the Ribeira. In addition to the park behind, there is also a medium sized supermarket nearby.
With all that said, the apartment is modern and sufficient, but small and basic. It is also worth pointing out that the balcony is shared with another apartment and not entirely private. The single bed pillows were uncomfortable and when we asked for cases to cover the two spare pillows found under the bed, we received no response. In addition to this, we were provided with one towel per person for four nights which, in my opinion, is a stretch. When we asked for fresh towels after two nights, we were told this would cost an additional €30 which is absolutely absurd.
Overall, we would recommend this apartment. However, definitely pay attention to some of the negative points raised in both my review and others as there is more that could be done to make the experience truly five stars.
