The location of the flat is lovely, with a beautiful view of Porto across the river. There are a lot of flights of stairs to the flat which I hadn't realised. Porto itself has a lot of steps and is very hilly. Jardim de Morrow nearby offers a fantastic sunset experience. I wanted a bedroom with three proper beds for my 3 children, I didn't find many 2 bed flats in Porto that offered this, so I compromised on the air conditioning. Porto does get hot, and only the children's room had a fan, so I was uncomfortable at night in July heat. There is a ceiling fan in the living room though, and that was good for the family space. Like some other European cities, there is a City tax for the first 7 days which caught me out. I had not expected to pay another €70 on top for a family of 5, so bear this in mind wherever you stay, Airbnb or hotel. Porto's sewers and drains are quite old, so there were some smells. Most people probably don't notice, but we did buy another air freshener just to freshen the space when we were at the flat. Towels, shampoo and shower gel are provided and the shower was great and we had no problems with hot water. all in all it was a wonderful stay and the cat and the terrace were a bit of a bonus.
