The apartment is large, modern, clean, stylish and comfortable. Sliding glass doors allow you to open and close the living and bedrooms and a large kitchen is well equipped. The separate shower and toilet rooms are nice. And there’s a walkable Juliet balcony the width of the flat that has beautiful views at night. The hosts were excellent in communicating with us, welcoming us and even left a nice local snack. The location is fantastic— an easy walk to every part of Porto a leisure visitor would be interested in (hilly walks to some areas, it’s true). The best restaurants are within a block or two (we found a great place on yelp only to discover it was actually in the same building!). Two caveats: the bed is very very firm— not unusual in Portugal but if you need a softer mattress this isn’t it. And a note on noise. The apartment has regular sash windows you can close, double paned “noise” windows, and wood shutters. Close all of those (fine if the ac is on) and the interior partition walls and the considerable sound from large restaurant crowds and live music until very late will not wake you in the bedroom, which is way back from the street. But during our stay, the huge garbage trucks that empty the public trash bins came at 1 am for about half an hour each night right in front of the apartment, and the banging, clanging and jet level engine noise was deafening even with everything closed. If you are a light sleeper, a quieter block may be for you.
