Well located in a busy, lively neighbourhood!
Christina offers a well equipped apartment in a very nice neighbourhood full of life. It's really in the centre of Porto, next to the river, which is a beautiful sight (in the morning as well as at night). There's a restaurant, a mini market and there are some bars just downstairs, so you can get anything you need immediately. Bus and tram stop in front of the house, but since it's in the centre, we just walked almost everywhere. Perfect location!
Unfortunately Christina couldn't be there when we arrived, so she told us where to find the keys. She left us many maps and a letter though, so we were able to manage and get around just fine. The list of things to see and do she wrote and told us about, was missing, that was a pity. We were curious to know where she would have sent us :) The WiFi was a bit of a problem, since it turned out to be a 'pre-paid' system, but we could get WiFi in the bars downstairs, so we managed.
The apartment is tastefully furnished and fully equipped. Christina told us to help ourselves to anything we might need, which is very friendly and made us feel at home. The photo's are accurate, it's as beautiful as it looks. Go here for a 'real Porto feel'!
