This is a perfect apartment for enjoying the sites of Porto. Being on the other side of the river, in Vila Nova de Gaia is not inconvenient since the apartment is right next to the General Torres metro stop and if you want to walk into the city, it’s only a few blocks from the Ponte Don Luis bridge. Other local places include a lively park (music, food tricks, etc) close to the bridge and a fantastic pastry cafe outside the front door of the apartment building. And to top all that off - the balcony looks west toward the city and the ocean. No need to go any other place to watch a sunset! The view is fantastic! We highly recommend Telmo’s apartment for enjoying the “feel” of Porto. We loved it and when we return to Porto, this will be first on our list.
