Sonia's apartment is lovely, well decorated and very clean. The beds were comfortable. Everything, except the washing machine (which Sonia had repaired immediately) worked well. There are a couple of good restaurants on her street and a café on the corner for quick meals if you don't want to walk into the center of Porto. It's a great base for exploring Porto and perfect for having a car if you want to go out into the Douro Valley for the day.
