A beautiful and large 19th century home, full of art and antiques but all perfectly updated with clean bathrooms and kitchen. Maria answered all our questions before arrival promptly, kindly allowed us to check in early and provided lots of extra essentials such as shower gel and bottles of water and fruit. We sat for breakfast and pre-dinner drinks in the courtyard which gets the sun after about midday. Maria's 'Things to Do' booklet was very helpful. Location: the area has loads of trendy art and fashion shops and its 15 mins walk from Lello bookshop and 30 mins uphill from the river. Beach 8 euros away by Uber. We found fabulous and cheap food in the nearby streets - Porto really is for foodies!
