Ivo was a great host. He welcomed us upon arrival and responded quickly whenever we contacted him. The apartment uses electronic keys - you use your smartphone to open the street and apartment doors.
The apartment is located in a quiet neighbourhood, away from the more tourist-saturated downtown area. It was clean, bright and modern. The bus stops are right outside the door and the Casa da Musica metro stop is about a 9 minute walk away. We didn’t use the kitchen to cook but it looked well-equipped to do so. The Nespresso machine was great to have. The mattress was very comfortable. The apartment includes a usable laptop-friendly workspace. We didn’t use the washer but one was available to use and it’s located on the little balcony. All in all, a great place to live while exploring Porto!
