Joao was a very good host, his very friendly son met us at the apartment and gave us all the details we required. The apartment is spacious, clean and had more than we expected for our 10 day holiday. It is in a good area, many good restaurants, shops just underneath, beach at the end of the street and a short walk over the bridge to the station to catch the train into Porto (only 3.50 return). On our second trip to Porto we caught the yellow tourist bus for a tour and were able to get off the bus at stop 17 (at the end of the bridge to walk home). We loved our stay here and would highly recommend this apartment and our contact with Joao and his family. Thank you
