We enjoyed our stay at this small apartment. We really were only there to sleep. As other reviewers have said, there is no soundproofing at all from the apartment above, you can hear every footstep and everything else....everything! 😜
It's a bit of a hilly walk back from town but we used uber quite a lot when we were tired. Only a couple of pounds. Great cafes and restaurants nearby. It's an area where locals seem to hang out so not a particular touristy vibe. Really enjoyed porto. We also had a hire car so travelled out to Braga area as well
