The townhouse is a wonderful surprise. Coming in off the street, one cannot imagine this home on the other side of the door. The interior is beautifully preserved, making it feel like you are living in a Merchant Ivory film.
There are four bedrooms and three full baths, which is great when traveling with a group — everyone can have some private space. The townhouse is well-situated; there are local shops around the corner for supplies and you can easily get out and see the sights of Porto. Joao also sent some recommendations for local restaurants, and was very available and welcoming.
