This is a gorgeous little 2 level apartment, main floor with a loft-esque 2nd level bedroom. The loft area also has a cozy little balcony with a fantastic view of the city, with a view right towards the Douro river and Gaia! Everything in the apartment has a rustic, old feel, yet also feels newly renovated and fresh. It was perfect!
The apartment is fully equipped with everything you'll need to remain refreshed and active! An A.C. unit and dehumidifier keep the internal climate perfect on those hot and humid days, and a washing machine on the second level will allow you to get some small loads of laundry done on your trip! Filipa even left us some wine bottles to purchase for a very reasonable price and a small complimentary carafe of Port!
The apartment, being centrally located in "old-town", is also a short walk from basically everything. Anything from the local markets, the riverside strips, train stations AND historical attractions are all minutes away by foot. It would truly be hard to find a more conveniently loacted residence.
Filipa was also VERY helpful with supplying tips and suggestions regarding places to visit and/or dine, so feel free to ask!
Happy Traveling!
