The location and the views are 11 out of 10. They just can't be beat, and it was wonderful to wake up each morning and relax with coffee and that view. Walking along the Villa Nova de Gaia riverside with the restaurants and port houses was a treat, and it was super easy to walk across the bridge to Porto and explore. The only caveat to staying here: the kitchen is not well stocked, so if you plan to cook in, be prepared to buy everything you need including salt, spices and olive oil. And also bring or buy your own coffee and/or tea for mornings.
