Maria's apartment was more than we could have hoped for and the location is spectacular. She was very quick and polite with all communication. The apartment was very clean and has windows all around with views of the sea, the top level with bedroom and ensuite bathroom has a balcony with a view of the sea also. My husband and I came with my father-in-law who stayed on the sofa downstairs which was also very comfortable for him. It is only one block back from the beach that is near an old light house and many cafes along the beach. It is easy to get into the historic centre with the buss 500 and close by the old trams. We found a few great traditional cafes and bars just near the apartment. I would definitely recommend Maria's apartment and if I was ever to return to Porto I would definitely stay there again. I have already recommended it to a friend!
