Maria's apartment was perfect for us. It was located just minutes from the historical downtown area and all the shopping area of Santa Catarina Street. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Maria was there to greet us with a bottle of wine and some snacks. We loved the convenience of the free on-site parking for our rental car. We went to the Douro region the next day and recommended Maria's apartment to other tourists we met there. Highly recommended.
