Rita's place was wonderful. Apartment was as described. Beautiful view. They even gave us a welcome bottle of wine. The town by the water was only a 10 minute walk. However the nearest metro was a 30 minute walk, and the Porto center was 40-45 minute walk uphill, up stairs, and across the bridge. Construction on the apartment started at 0830 every morning which we were not informed about. And communication between the staff and the company was minimal. We received a message from the company 20-30 minutes after we already checked in stating that someone was waiting at the apartment to check us in and housekeeping barged into the apartment 15-20 minutes prior to check out time even though we had stated what time we were leaving. Also the staff at the Welcome Center were very rude, started yelling at us for taking our luggage after we had already checked with another staff member. Overall, the apartment itself was a great place to staff however the management needs to get their act together.
