Great location - apartment is okay
After arrival at Porto airport it was an easy transition to the city centre and the apartment. As a true, gentle host, Tomás offered that we could leave our luggage at his office as the cleaners were still cleaning the apartment. The apartment itself is okay - everything you need is there, but it's noticeable that it's main use is for short-stay tenants. At first glance, it seems clean and complete, but the shower and tub are in need of a small renovation, the mattress feels worn and there's some mold here and there. Having said that, the location is awesome. Within a 100M radius there are a handful of pubs/tabernas you should check-out: Aduela, Candelabro and the beautiful wine-church Capela Incomum. Also, we valued that the apartment is just outside of the tourist-area, meaning that if you're lucky, at night, you'll catch locals dancing salsa at the Praça de Carlos Alberto (which also happens to house a lovely, little, red, café bar with great coffee and lovely, Portuguese, hand-made cookies).
