If you are looking at other places to stay in Porto/Gaia, stop now! This is THE one to pick! I agree with other reviewers who have said staying at Pedro's place has been their best experience with Airbnb. I could not agree more.
Pedro went above and beyond for us on more than one occasion. He offered to arrange rides to and from the airport, picked us up from the Metro, showed us around, gave us all of the best places to eat and their locations, and even provided toys for our kids.
Beyond the host himself, the place is amazing! The view is incredible, the beds are comfy, and everything we needed was right there in the house, including English TV channels (something we don't even have at home which was a real treat!)
The location is also perfect. It sits almost directly across from historic Ribeira on the Gaia side which offers the very best view of everything Porto. As a family of 5 we had no trouble getting around. We walked, we took the historic tram, rode the Metro, and did the sightseeing bus.
A few things of note, there were some middle-of-the-night-crying-kid-upstairs problems but nothing the fan/heater didn't help drown out and nothing that is Pedro's fault. There is also construction but he told us it would be complete at the end of the year.
I am hesitant to recommend this place only because I want it to be available when I come back. ☺
