Bruno was beyond helpful when we first arrived, and his place was stunning. Everything in the house was unique but refined, espresso machines in each room made waking up dreamy, while the extremely comfortable beds/ auto blinds/individual temp control insure a good nights sleep.

As for the location, it was ideal. The metro station is very close, the near by park an added amenity, and the views were spectacular. Staying in Gaia, but close to the bridge connecting the two cities allowed for the best of both worlds- excellent view, while not compromising closeness to both the culturally rich Porto and the brimming Port tasting halls on the Gaia side.

Bike rentals were just over the bridge- i'd highly recommend the ride to the beach-it was easy and beautiful. Porto was smaller than expected, so we rarely wound up taking the metro, except to and from the airport.

I'll definitely be staying here again, and have already started recommending Bruno's place to others.
