We had a fantastic stay at Silvio's! The apartment was amazing - very new with all the mod cons, a lovely rain shower and a well stocked kitchen. We loved the balcony too where we had breakfast every morning. The attention to detail really made the experience special and like we were staying at a luxury apartment, from the vase of flowers to the chalkboard with welcome message, and all the tea, coffee, sweets and bowl of fruit we could help ourselves to. The location was great, very quiet and easy 5-10 minute walk into the historic centre.

Communication with the host was excellent and Silvio was available by text the whole time. Although we didn't meet him in person, we did meet his lovely friend Adriana who checked us in and gave us tons of advice on what to see and where to eat in Porto. She was so kind and friendly, and clearly loved her city. Silvio also gave us some great tips for our day trip into the gorgeous Douro Valley. They were both so helpful and went out of their way to make sure we had a pleasant stay.

All in all, I can't recommend this AirBnB highly enough! It was clear that Silvio has put a lot of thought and care into hosting, and our experience was what AirBnB should be all about.
