We really enjoyed our stay at João's apartment in Porto. His brother, Miguel, was waiting for us when we arrived with a warm welcome, a map of the city, and a few recommendations of things to do in Porto during our stay. The apartment is exactly like it is in the photos, great light, beautiful wood floors, and a cozy lofted bedroom. We were also thrilled that it had a washer as we had been traveling for nearly two weeks and hadn't had a chance to wash clothes yet. We were unfortunately unlucky with the weather and it was raining every night in Porto, Miguel had warned us that there may be a slight leak from the skylight during strong rains, so we had to put a bucket down under where the water was dripping- it didn't impact our stay in the least, and we would most definitely still recommend this apartment to those interested in a trip to Porto and an apartment in a quiet and central part of the city.
