Rafaela was the perfect host - fast communication, attentive, friendly, extremely helpful and kind! Her apartment is in the most central location to everything you really are staying in the heart of Porto. Beautifully stylish with high ceilings it's a real treat staying there. Rafaela left us some traditional portugese tarts (pastel de natas) and some port for us as a welcoming gift which were delicious! And she gave us some excellent food recommendations with a great authentic portugese bakery directly across the street from the apartment. Delicious ice cream parlours all around the city and for the freshest seafood if you venture a 20 minute taxi drive away be sure to check out Tito 1 and 5 Oceanos in the district of Matosinhos . Most definitely worth it!!! Noshi which was a 5 min walk away for healthy and delicious brunch and coffee, boa boa which if you fancied something not portugese for a food option was the most amazing vietnamese food I've had in a long time. Porto is the most wonderful city and would recommend to anyone! Thanks rafaela and cielo for your hospitality.
