The location of this place was fantastic. We were near to such many of the main sights you want to see in Porto. It was handy to have the lift too. Francisco did a great job of meeting us and making sure we were comfortable, including quickly finding the Champions League final on the TV! I think we read in some earlier reviews that there is building work and yes there was some taking place outside, but that didn't start until 8 and didn't go on late, so didn't disrupt our trip. There is loads of building work going on throughout Porto so you'll find it difficult to avoid generally. We were very pleased with our stay.
