The flat is high up which means the views from the narrow balcony are great. There’s just enough room out there for a small table and chairs. We were there in winter and the flat was cold. Thankfully the heaters helped, but they also tripped the electricity when we used most of the other appliances. That said,the same thing happened in the other apartment we stayed in in Porto, and perhaps this is a feature of Porto’s electricity in older apartments.
There is no lounge so the only place to relax is in the main bed or the balcony or at the tiny kitchen table. I had imagined more space so felt disappointed, but Ana and Daniel were kind and assisted us wherever we had a question. The location re the rest of the city is super and this is probably the best selling point of the apartment.
