Our first visit to Porto, The position of Carloss house was excellent, close to the river, close to lots of restuarants, small supermarkets close by. Carlos assistant was waiting at the house for us when we arrived, she explained everything in the house, showed us where everything was. She also provided us with a contact by whats app for taxis, which was really convenient, to enable us to get our bearings. The house was beautiful, better than we could have imagined. We were 4 ladies who have been friends for nearly 40 years, and just loved the whole Porto experience. Would highly recommend Porto, and also The Ivy House. The Portugese people we met in every situation, were so friendly, and helpful. The position of The Ivy House for us was great, it was on the tram line,bus line and the Red and Yellow tourist bus line, worthwhile using. We had the best time ever. Thankyou so much Carlos and friends for making our stay so wonderful. The house was so comfortable, and we loved coming back in the evenings to sit in the sitting room. Loved the decor, pictures, and the lighting furnishings etc, all beautiful.
