Susana's cute modern style loft is conveniently located half a block from the large pedestrian shopping and casual/touristy cafe area of Sta. Catarina as well as just a few minutes walk from many other Porto attractions and 1 1/2 blocks from the Balhao metro station.
Susana welcomed us cheerfully and showed us around the loft which is well equipped with all the basic necessities, including a very comfortable firm mattress on its double bed.
Our only small warning is to keep in mind that this is a busy downtown area so traffic noise, particularly from the frequently passing buses, continues 24 hrs a day, a bit annoying at night as there is no air conditioning so windows must be opened for ventilation. Otherwise the place is great and Susana's hospitality and response time to any emailed questions were excellent.
