the place is great. spacious apartment, very close to the ocean, close to public transit stations, pretty easy to find. the internet speed was fast, some affordable markets are also close.
it is important to notice that the flat is far from the center of Porto, it is located in a safe and a bit fancy area. you will need a bus pass or a car, and it will take you at least 30 minutes to get to central attractions.
now for some cons. we were four people and even if the space was big enough for us, we couldn't really make much use of it. if all the appliances were on, it meant that the lights would shut off. the place has two showers, but we couldn't use them both at the same time. there were times when we washed with lukewarm water. we had to flip the eletric switch on and off so that the light will come back.
we recommend this place to those who love seeing the sunset on the ocean nearby a beautiful beach with a bottle of wine. if you don't mind travelling to the center, then go for it, because the location is brilliant.
