Travelling a lot, I've gotten to know quite a bunch of apartments these couple of years and I really have to say, that I had the best Airbnb experience so far at André's apartment.
The accommodation is as described and without any flaws.
It's well equipped, clean (!), bright, beautifully furnished and the view from the balcony is breath taking.
The apartment is located very central next to the station in a pedestrian area. It's surprisingly calm inside the flat, because it doesn't face the street but the courtyard. You can easily walk to the old part of the city and to the Douro, but also to the more urban part. There is a supermarket in walking distance.
Last but not least I really have to pay my respect to André, who was easy to communicate with, eager to help (thanks again for the tips!) and very patient - to summarize he was the perfect host.
Thank you for the lovely experience, we are coming back for sure!
