Perhaps the next time I am in Porto, I will be able to stay here longer than just a few days. As noted by previous reviewers, Filipa's place is ideally located right upon the vibrant, bustling Ribeira area, and the balcony affords outstanding views of the nearby Dom Luis bridge and the Vila Nova de Gaia with its port wine houses across the river. For morning coffee, take a pleasant stroll across the bridge to a Gaia cafe, and you will be rewarded with an equally stunning view of the Porto neighborhoods lit by the morning sun. Walk just past the bridge to board the funicular, which will lift you up into a great area for shopping and restaurants. I found Filipa & Moises to be very helpful and gracious hosts, especially since this was my first visit to Europe, The accommodations are modern and clean, very well-maintained. And I also will suggest a trip downstairs to the wine bar -- Moises is the proprietor, choose a wine flight and he will help you to find the perfect bottle to take home with you.
