The accomodation is perfectly located: really close to the beach, only a few minutesfrom a very nice bakery and the train station. You can easily spend one day in Porto and at the beach with no haste.
Unfortunately, upon our arrival the apartment was a bit chaotic because Maria has actually been busy getting her other apartment in Porto ready for renting out. But our rooms were nice, clean and ready. The rooms have perfect size, even for longer trips you have enough storage. We spend most evenings on the balcony, that was really nice. Also very good are the outer shades, help to sleep in 😉
What has not been clear to us, the rooms are actually in Maria's own apartment and she was there most of the time so we actually shared the apartment with her. That was sometimes a bit uncomfortable, especially with our child. Nevertheless, we had our own bathroom and Maria is really nice, friendly, and helpful.
Another drawback are the dogs. Not really her own dog, which got used to us real quick but more the dogs in the neighbourhood. That would bark until late in the night which was quite disturbing. That's not Maria's fault of course, but we wish we had known before.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and this apartment is perfectly located but we would probably not stay here again.
