I didn't realise how much I needed calm, quiet, serenity and 'me-time' till I got to Hugo's simple, elegant studio in Porto. I totally recommend it.
It's spacious for a studio and tastefully decorated, with beautiful high ceilings and gorgeous shuttered windows - just perfect for my 2 day getaway.
Located at the western end of the old town, in a classic old building, at the top of the hillside and up several flights of stairs. It will give your legs a work out but it was easy to access all the tourist hotspots.
I was there on a Thursday and Friday night, so by the weekend it got a little loud down on the street but thanks to the super comfortable bed and space it felt like a lovely secret retreat.
Hugo was an excellent host, he gave me great instructions and tips on arrival. The studio showed his attention to detail and had lots of thoughtful touches. I honestly don't think I would have had a better stay at a 5 star hotel and Hugo's was much better value!
Thank you Hugo!
