You can't find a better located apartment. This place is in the centre of the coveted Ribeira, which boasts cafes, churches, museums and shops. It also practically hovers over the river, affording views of the boats plying the currents and the port distilleries across the bridge.
After a day of touring, we would fling open the French doors, pour ourselves a glass of port and watch the happenings.
The two Miguels who manage the place were very responsive, providing great tips on what to see and do and offering help when we had questions about the apartment.
We wish we'd stayed longer.
