I had an amazing stay here and it was one of my favorites so far. To start with, João’s mother was very attentive and helpful via text messages with tons of information about things to do. She made sure that she was available for anything you needed. She also allowed me to check in early and check out later as well. The whole process is seamless. The location of the apartment is also top notch. Very close to the city center and all the tourist attractions but without much noise at night. You don’t need to rely on public transit as much since you can just walk just about anywhere. But public transit is close by and can easily be reached via foot, either bus, trolley, or metro. There are some bars directly downstairs next door but the noise is not even noticeable in the room when sleeping. The apartment was very clean and cozy. The balcony overlooks a small park and lets in a lot of sunlight during the say. The bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. If I ever come back to Porto this will be the first place I look at to stay at if available. Don’t miss out on this amazing listing if you have the chance to book during your time in Porto.
