I work from my computer and wanted to check out portugal for a month, having never been there, i feel i got very lucky with this apartment. The location is in a beautiful neighborhood of downtown porto (trinidade) there is a park near by for walks, a couple gyms to choose from, ranging about 5 - 15 minuets walking, there is a grocery store, and several restaurants within 5 minuets walking as well. The apartment is very clean and well maintained, indeed does have everything for a long term stay, including good and reliable wifi. The windows let in lots of natural light which is nice, and there are some very talkative seagulls nearby who are excited about something each morning, this helped me get up early regularly. Very ideal for a solo traveler
