Marcia's place is perfectly situated for touring Porto. It's within walking distance of many attractive sites. It's safe, tastefully decorated, and with all the amenities. I travelled solo and Almada Terrace suited my needs. I bought freshly baked pastries, fruit, and water from the grocery 2 minutes walk away. On New Year's Eve I was able to see the fantastic display of fireworks from the nearby Square from the terrace as Marica mentioned. I must add that Marcia is a most helpful, cheerful, and friendly person so it was easy to interact with her.
