We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was ideally located for us - just outside the historic/touristic centre of Porto, within 10-15 minutes walk of the main sights. The apartment is spotless and has modern amenities and plenty of room for 4 adults (or more if you also use the sofa bed!). There was no washing machine, but if needed there is a laundromat around the corner - but we didn't use it. Perhaps the only 'missing' thing was an oven (there is a hob and a microwave grill), but we found we did not miss this anyway since there are numerous great restaurants around the apartment. One round the corner Papavinhos is really fantastic and good value. Also recommend the grilled sardines at the river. The hosts were fabulous - offered way beyond what we expected and went out of their way to help us in every way!
